Earlier this month I participated in a video competition in Jackson that matched 7 filmmaking teams (I was the only one-man show) with 7 non-profits in the valley to produce < 3min videos. I got matched with Friends of the Teton River and over the next 5 days made a film raising awareness about the beautiful Teton River

All 7 films are online and now I need your help to vote. I'd obviously love for everyone to vote for my film, but to be fair vote for whatever film is your favorite (although I encourage you to think twice about voting for "Where the West Begins" because they cheated and made their video almost 5 min long)

Thank you NS, I'm currently in 2nd but with your help I could make it to 1st! Vote by liking the video on YouTube!

Done. Great video. Thanks for not using the word "sustainability" a thousand times. When I hear that word my eyes glaze over and I almost tune out. Preaching and practicing are two far different monsters. What was it like talking with Yvon? That dude marches to a different drum and I couldn't respect it more.

Thanks for the kind words everyone! Really appreciate the votes, theres now less than 24 hours until voting stops! Only 40 votes separates me and 1st place!!

All_AlpineWhat was it like talking with Yvon? That dude marches to a different drum and I couldn't respect it more.

meeting Yvon was awesome, he's super humble and genuine. Both on and off camera he's super fired up about all these environmental issues and luckily through Patagonia definitely has a platform for positive change, with 1% of all their sales, before profit, going to 1% for the Planet. They way I linked up with him is I went as an assistant on a shoot for the video below, and got to set up my camera and sneak in a couple questions towards the end of the shoot
