Telluride, Colo.’s Mountainfilm festival stops in Stowe during its cross-country road trip to bring Vermonters a slate of adventure-packed short documentaries. Each film inspires viewers with stories about the outdoors, environmentalism, social justice and mental health. Subjects include the creation of the southwestern United States’ canyons over millions of years; a skate park that brings castes together in a small Indian village; Arlene Blum, the woman who led the first American ascent of Annapurna; and Colorado Parks and Wildlife’s only female pilot and her journey toward overcoming trauma.
