 The
Snowbowl Effect
(2005, 56 min.) US
Director: Klee Benally (Navajo)
Arizona's San Francisco Peaks, revered by more than a dozen Native
American tribes, have endured a history of development. Although
a coalition of tribal leaders and environmentalists were able
to halt mining activities in the late 1990s, the struggles to
protect the Peaks are not over. This thoughtful look at our relationship
to the land focuses on a new battle between conservationists and
developers over the U.S. Forest Service's lease of 777 acres to
the Arizona Snowbowl Ski Resort.
