Sometimes our time spent in the outdoors is not only about ourselves but about the impact we can have on others when we try to make this a better world. From Squamish to Everest to Glen Canyon and beyond, inspirational people are everywhere you look.

Sheri Tingey’s 60-year career as a woman who has defied the odds by starting a company at age 50 that has revolutionized the outdoor industry. The film is a story about the hurdles she overcame to launch the company, about the ways she hid from view so that people would judge the boats, not her role in creating them. At this watershed moment of reckoning around equity and inclusion for the industry, Sheri’s life story will both warm audiences, and ask them to grapple with important questions about who belongs.
