A Night Of Adventure

Mark Reiner who is keeping the Film Festival Organization alive and thriving. Came out for Colorado
and brought some wonderful films for us to watch.

Here are some of Jonny Copps' photographs and journerls on display.

We all got to watch Alpinist Jonny Copp explore the long process of making alpine climbing trips a reality-
from the inspiration, throught the training, the partnership and the risk, to the elusive summit - via footage from recent climbs in the Himalayas,Patagonia, Kashmir and other alpine locales.
Longways- 12 min. flim directed by and featured Jonny Copp was shown.

Flying Over Everest -60 min.
by Fabio Toncelli

Flying Over Everest follow the antics and adventures of Angelo D'Arrigo and his efforts to fly a hand glider
over the summit of Mt. Everest. The true story of not only the flight, but also two Himalayan Eagles he raised to fly with him over Mt. Everest.
I can not tell you how much inspiration these films give you, and the passion that each and every person
pours into their dreams and goals to make them a reality.
We left feeling renewed challenged and alive.
