Story: Few venture into true mountain wilderness. A riveting portrait of human passion set high in the peaks of British Columbia, Canada.

Martina Halik and her 60 year-old mother Tania embark on a six-month ski trek through the treacherous Coast Mountains of British Columbia, Canada. This journey has only been completed once before, and never by a female duo. Their adventure is interspersed with beautifully crafted portraits of high-altitude human endurance and passion-an avalanche survivor, a snowshoe artist, a snowbound convent-that are by turns captivating and inspiring. Woven between their arduous and uplifting story are vignettes of others who have chosen a mountain life: a group of nuns inhabiting a mountain retreat to be closer to God; a photographer is buried in an avalanche; an impassioned alpinist; a focused snow artist; a couple who has been living off grid in the mountains for nearly 50 years. What is it that leads these adventurous people to sacrifice everything - comfort, family, personal safety - for a life in the mountains?

Seventy-five percent of British Columbias land mass is considered mountains, yet few people, let alone British Columbians, have truly experienced what those mountains have to offer. A handful of stories of people who live, work and/or recreate in the mountains of British Columbia are told, those stories at times joyous, at times terrifying, but always awe inspiring. As the centerpiece is the story of mother and daughter and deciding to make what they anticipate will be the five to six month trek starting in the winter along the Coast Mountains from Squamish, British Columbia north to Skagway, Alaska - Tania considering this experience a sixtieth birthday present to herself - their plan to carry whatever they need along the entire trek, and camping in a two-person tent, with only a food drop to take place every five to ten days.
