Warren Miller's Face of Winter

Visit some of Warren’s favorite locations from Switzerland to Chamonix, British Columbia to Alaska, Chile, Iceland, New Zealand, and more.
Line of Descent
Director

Here, There & Everywhere
Director of Photography
For our 67th annual ski and snowboard film, we're revisiting some of Warren's favorite places. We followed Grete Eliassen and Jess McMillan into the Swiss Alps, and Kaylin Richardson and Chris Anthony around Deer Valley to pay homage to Stein Eriksen. We chased JT Holmes, Jonny Moseley and Jeremy Jones around Squaw Valley, and Tyler Ceccanti and Collin Collins across Montana's Glacier Country. From Crested Butte, Kicking Horse and vertical lines in Alaska to pond skimming in Steamboat, these are your winter dreams, set to film. We also managed to dream up few spots Warren himself never dreamed of filming: Olympic snowboard champion Seth Wescott and Rob Kingwill carve sea-to-sky peaks at the end of the earth in Greenland, and the best big air riders in the world takeover Boston's Fenway Park. This year, we went where our legacy — and where the snow —took us. We went Here, There, And Everywhere.

Chasing Shadows
Director
Warren Miller Entertainment's 66th snow sports film, Chasing Shadows. Watch JT Holmes, Seth Wescott, Caroline Gleich, Steven Nyman, Marcus Caston and more as they pursue turns on the mountains of our dreams: Chamonix, Alaska's Chugach, the Chilean Andes, Utah's Wasatch and the mightiest range of them all: the Himalaya. These athletes are masters in their element, and with every cliff drop, perfect line and neck-deep powder turn, they motivate us. Warren Miller once said, "A pair of skis are the ultimate transportation to freedom," and this year, we're chasing storms, snow, lines that live on the world's highest peaks, and the freedom that these things grant us.
Warren Miller: Ticket to Ride
Director of Photography
A ticket can get you anywhere in the world, from the chairlift at your local ski area to the top of Talgar Peak in Kazakhstan. It can put your heart in your throat as you fly over a knoll faster than you have all year, and it can put your mind at ease when you find yourself alone in a snow-covered Aspen grove with clear blue sky above and crisp cold air all around. A ticket is the end of reality and the beginning of a journey. And we've got one for you.
Waypoints
Director
Following in the footsteps of Confluence’s earlier releases DRIFT, RISE and CONNECT, WAYPOINTS is the most exotic, ambitious and in-depth feature-length project that Confluence has ever created. Shot around the world in both fresh and saltwater, locations include flats fishing St. Brandon’s Atoll in the Indian Ocean, trout fishing the wilds of Patagonian Chile, coastal Southeast Alaska for Steelhead, the Himalayan rivers of India for Golden Mahseer, and the jungles of Venezuela for saber-toothed payara.
Wintervention
Director of Photography
Do people think you have a problem? Can you just not get enough of winter and skiing? Don’t worry you’re not alone, follow skiers and riders like Jossi Wells, Andy Mahre, JJ Thomas, and others who all have the same problem as you. From the North Pole all the way down to the South Pole watch an epic ski journey that will help you realize that the only cure to your ailment is a good Wintervention.
Storm
Cinematography
You can’t have all the things we love like skiing and snow without a good Storm. Follow along as skiers and riders like Seth Morrison, Toby Dawson, Jeremy Bloom, Tanner Hall, and Glen Plake tackle every condition and obstacle in their way head on in order to ski some of the freshest snow around. Warren Miller takes you on a trip from Idaho, California, and Colorado, all the way to Canada, Austria and even to the distant country of Georgia and along the way proves that a good Storm can happen wherever you’re at.
