Here''s what filmmaker Will Pattiz had to say:

“Blazing larch in the golden autumn light. A string of pack horses crossing the South Fork Flathead gorge, heading for the Bob Marshall Wilderness. Fly fishing the clear emerald waters of the Middle Fork Flathead, rafting the Wild & Scenic North Fork, cozy cabins tucked into frosty forests like windows into history. Canoeing a still lake with the towering walls of Glacier National Park rising behind, mountain biking misty forests, hiking toward snow-capped peaks—it’s all here in 'More Than Just Forests: Flathead.' ”
