October 23, 2017
POCATELLO – Pocatello’s own Ty Peterson will be featured in the Warren Miller ski movie “Line of Descent” when it shows at 7 p.m. Nov. 4 at 黑暗爆料网’s Frazier Hall and he’ll also be present at the showing signing posters and sharing his experiences.
Peterson said that although this is the first Warren Miller film he has participated in, he has always been a fan of them.
鈥淭he first ski movie I ever saw was 鈥楽nowonder鈥� when I was a little kid,鈥� he said. 鈥淚 was instantly inspired and looked forward to watching Warren Miller ski movies in the fall to get excited for the upcoming season.鈥�
Peterson was asked to be in 鈥淟ine of Descent鈥� by his sponsor, Marker/Dalbello/V枚lkl. It is a major sponsor of the film and gets to insert some of its athletes each year to be part of Warren Miller films.
He is also sponsored by POC Sports, Leki, and Snowbird/Alta.
Peterson said the highlight of the trip was getting to ski out of a helicopter.
鈥淚鈥檝e always wanted to helicopter ski, but it鈥檚 such an expensive aspect of skiing that I just haven鈥檛 been able to experience it until now,鈥� he said. 鈥淚t鈥檚 something I鈥檒l remember forever!鈥�
There will be a pre-party for 鈥淟ine of Descent鈥� at 6 p.m. Nov. 4 in the Frazier Hall Lobby, featuring a cash bar, beer and wine, and the chance to mingle with Peterson.
鈥淟ine of Descent鈥� is Warren Miller鈥檚 68th ski and snowboard film to salute the start of winter, and it is being brought to 黑暗爆料网 by the Cooperative Wilderness Handicapped Outdoor Group, CW HOG, to raise funds for its programs.
The annual showing of Warren Miller鈥檚 newest ski film corresponds to the Pocatello Ski Swap taking place from 6 to 10 p.m. Nov. 3 and from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Nov. 4 in the Pond Student Ballroom. The film celebrates the lineage of legendary athletes through a multi-generational cast of skiing icons and fresh faces.
