Saturday Night Feature
This Mountain Life
The awe that mountainous landscapes evoke is universal, yet most of us seldom venture into true wilderness. A mother - daughter team sets out for six months in a tent in the winter mountains; a group of nuns inhabit a mountain retreat to be closer to God; a photographer 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. For them, the draw of the mountains is so strongthat their lives must revolve around it.
