This year’s Backcountry Bash was our best one yet. More than 300 guests enjoyed beer by Avery Brewing Company, grilled cheese sandwiches by Rudi’s Organic Bakery, and a screening of “Australis: An Antarctic Ski Odyssey” with extreme skier Chris Davenport. We raised over $29,000 for the CMC’s conservation department and their work to protect the quiet winter backcountry.
If you missed the event, you can still catch a short version of Australis along with several other amazing and entertaining films on December 16 when CMC hosts the Backcountry Film Festival at the American Mountaineering Museum. Tickets are $10 online, $12 door.
