The Mountain in My Mind, A Ski Film and Discussion about Mental Health

This ski and snowboard film interviews skiers across the “Suicide Belt” in the Rocky Mountain Region of the USA. Its goal is to destigmatize talking about mental health and suicide in the ski industry. Featuring nearly 50% men and 50% women, the film has all types of skiing, including: urban/street skiing, ski mountaineering, sled/snowmobile-assisted skiing, terrain park skiing, snowboarding, pillow skiing, powder skiing, resort/in-bounds skiing, and more! Join a group of locals as they share their lived experience in our mountain town and learn about the resources available to you.
