Minds of Mountainfilm:
The Minds of Mountainfilm interviews take place every year at the annual Mountainfilm festival and features a selection of the adventurers, artists and activists who join us as our special guests. From extreme athletes to cutting-edge scientists, explorers, authors and the best of independent documentary filmmakers, these friends of Mountainfilm represent a uniquely diverse and inspiring cadre of thinkers and doers. In the interviews they address issues that matter in their particular realms of experience and expertise - issues that, almost invariably, matter a great deal to all of us. The 2014 Minds of Mountainfilm interviews were shot and edited by Telluride TV, Telluride’s local, non-profit, television station.
Dean Potter:
Dean Potter is a decorated climber and BASE jumper. From speed climbing The Nose on El Capitan in Yosemite National Park in California to BASE jumping 9,000 vertical feet off the Eiger in Switzerland, he’s always pushing the limits of his sports. He’s also known for exploits in highlining — traversing death-defying routes (such as above Yosemite Falls) on nothing more than nylon webbing. Potter’s dog, Whisper, is one of his partners in adventure.
