On September 18, 1989, a seasoned outdoor producer/cinematographer and a hunting party became stranded in the middle of frigid Sandy Lake—about 500 miles

southwest of Anchorage, Alaska after their boat capsized.

A mountain wave was to blame.

 

“Mountain Wave” is a story about the triumph of the human spirit when thrust into inconceivable circumstance.
