OUR SPONSORS

On September 18, 1989, a seasoned outdoor producer/cinematographer and a hunting party became stranded in the middle of frigid Sandy Lake—about 500 miles
southwest of Anchorage, Alaska after their boat capsized.
A mountain wave was to blame.
“Mountain Wave” is a story about the triumph of the human spirit when thrust into inconceivable circumstance.
