Steep opens at Tinseltown


If you missed it in today's Go! section,"Steep," the big mountain skiing documentary that includes footage of Colorado ski legends Lou Dawson and Chris Davenport opens its local run today.

It follows the history of extreme skiing and includes what Gazette writer Andy Wineke says is awesome scenes of, well, steeps. And shots of skiers riding out an avalanche that are mind boggling.

Read Andy's story about filmmaker Mark Obenhaus here.

Read his review of the movie here.

Scroll down a bit and watch Andrew McLean, who survived that avalance, talk to Steve Colbert on The Colbert Report.
