The diverse ecosystem of the Sacred Headwaters, the birthplace of the Skeena, The Nass and The Stikine, three of the worlds greatest salmon bearing rivers, is currently threatened by a number of resource extracting projects.
A Winter North tells the story of the first ski expedition to the area and showcases the Headwaters for its rich natural beauty.
