Tom Murphy moved to Livingston, Montana in 1978 to be close to Yellowstone National Park. After growing up on a cattle ranch in western South Dakota he needed to continue to be outside in clean wild country.  He has made a living photographing wildlife and wild land around the world and Yellowstone remains his passion. This film explores his connection to wild land in its most inhospitable season, winter. He has skied extensively in Yellowstone’s backcountry including three trips across the Park, the first one solo in 1985.
