History

Johnny grew up skiing at Snowbird and Alta ski resorts in Little Cottonwood Canyon. Traveling to climb and ski around the western US with his family inspired him at a young age to pursue a life in the mountains. At 17, Johnny went on a quest to climb the Seven Summits in one year. He accomplished this, skiing off of three summits, which inspired him to always ski the mountains he climbs. Since then, Johnny has been lucky enough to travel the globe with film crews documenting what skiers do. Skiing has brought him to many corners of the globe to sample powder in Japan, pillows in BC, spines in AK, big mountain lines in Greenland and countless other unforgettable destinations. Any day on skis is a good day for Johnny, shredding resort laps at Alta or creeping through foggy ridgetops in Greece. Apart from the strange act of sliding across frozen water on two planks, skiing and climbing seem to bring together a unique group of people that love the mountains, and this is what Johnny loves as well—meeting new faces that all share the same passion and stoke. He hope to see you all out in the hills!

Winterland is a celebration of ski and snowboard culture. Today's mountain athletes can only stand as tall as those who came before, the pirates of the past who followed their own path and passion. This story of adventure is far from over, as a new crop of modern-day pioneers are eager to etch their names in the annals of history. The technology and style might evolve, but the rush, excitement, and pure fun remain eternal, bonding past, present, and future riders. The film will follow these individuals as they leave their own mark on these fabled locations.

In the winter of 2017, the magnitude of winter's force was on full display. Telephone pole-snapping storms pounded the Wyoming landscape. Regions to the west, recently left arid and forgotten, were gifted with unprecedented accumulation. Blizzards in Europe buried towns in an instant before disappearing just as fast, leaving the lucky few who were there to wonder if it even happened. A Bolivian expedition found grace above 18,000 feet before the elements went rogue and the humans reluctantly heeded warnings from above.
