    This may not be the right forum for it, but….where else?

    I went to see the Banff Mountain Film Festival last night and it was fun and exciting and inspiring as it has been every year I have gone.

    Of all the movies shown on the first night “Shift. Break your own trail” was the most inspiring and hopefull and touching one for me. If you have a chance to see the festival or have a way to get your hands on this reel…it will not disappoint.

    “SHIFT is a half-hour documentary about the indigenous youth from Carcross, Yukon who have spent the past 10 years converting traditional trails around their town in to a world-class mountain biking destination — and transforming their community and themselves along the way.”
