British Columbia’s iconic Jumbo Valley is at the center of a complex multi-decade fight: developer Oberto Oberti plans to build a massive resort in a section of the Purcell Range that’s both a sacred space for the local First Nations community and a critical environment for grizzly bears. Can activists overcome government interests and eager financiers to keep the valley wild? As a skier and adventure sports filmmaker, Nick Waggoner feels the lure of the resort, but understands that First Nations rights and ecosystem health should take precedence.
