Thirty years ago, renowned wildlife photographer Tom Murphy embarked upon the expedition of a lifetime – he skied across Yellowstone National Park, in the dead of winter, by himself with only a blue tarp as a shelter. A life-defining trip that has yet to be repeated.

At the age of 66, Tom headed back across Yellowstone’s frozen landscape, this time with a film crew to document the journey — and Spearfish residents, Clay Dykstra and John Williams. The expedition once again took him across the most remote and inaccessible parts of the park. He was pushed to the brink of his endurance and the trip tested his years of backcountry experience.

This film — coming in 2017 — will document this journey across the park as well as explore Tom’s life as a photographer, his philosophy about nature, wilderness, and his love for the striking beauty and power of Yellowstone’s most unforgiving season – winter.
