A still from Warren Miller's 73rd outing 'Daybreak'
With Heavenly reporting it plans to open on Nov. 18, another rite in the arrival of winter is the 73rd annual premiere of a Warren Miller film celebrating skiing on Nov. 12.
“Daymaker” is the latest entry in the ski and snowboard legacy that has lasted nearly three-quarters of a century.
Warren Miller films are annual celebrations that cross generations and connect us to the comforting constant of snow.
“Daymaker,” enlisted big names for the film and planned even bigger adventures. It features ‘Crazy’ Karl Fostvedt and a local crew of
freeskiers in Sun Valley, and Katie Burrell on a Canadian road trip, as she attempts to go pro alongside Freeride World Tour competitors Hedvig Wessel, Lexi duPont, and more.
From there, Warren Miller returns to Snowmass for the biggest party of the winter with the National Brotherhood of Skiers, where viewers meet the emerging talent that the NBS supports to further its goal of placing Black skiers and snowboarders on the U.S. Team.
The film captures a trip to Greece’s Olympus Range with Michelle Parker and McKenna Peterson, plus the powder days we all dream of with a killer storm cycle in British Columbia’s Monashees.
Follow two trips to Alaska, featuring Daron Rahlves, Ryland Bell, Cam Fitzpatrick.
And watch as Pete McAfee and Dominic Davila rewrite the rules of adaptive backcountry riding.
“Daymaker” serves up the winter stoke from Snowbasin to Switzerland, where Connery Lundin tackles the ultimate grass skiing run. Warren Miller’s 73rd film will bring you along for the biggest days so you can get ready for your own. Because there’s no better day than one out on the hill.
Blue Zone Sports will present the premier of “Daymaker” 4 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. Nov. 12 at Harrah’s Tahoe in Stateline.
Tickets available at WarrenMillerMovie.com, Ticketmaster or at the Harrah’s Box Office or at the door on show night.
