Movie Night: "The Wild Next Door" — Documentary on Alpine Lakes Wilderness

About

The Society for Wilderness Stewardship recently partnered with the Aldo Leopold Wilderness Research Institute to direct and produce a 38-minute documentary film, entitled "The Wild Next Door: Between City Limits & Sacred Lands," that explores the challenges and opportunities of managing urban proximate wilderness. With an in-depth look at the Alpine Lakes Wilderness, the film highlights the many perspectives of wilderness management in an alpine landscape, including those of current and former US Forest Service managers, Tribal council members, visitors, scientists, and nonprofit partners.
