In January we made our way to McCall, Idaho, where we found a hidden treasure, Brundage Mountain. We spent a couple days in the sidecountry and a couple days cat skiing, while having the time of our lives. What we found at Brundage was an undiscovered gem with deep pow, no lift lines, and locals that make you feel at home.

In this episode of Germination you will catch a glimpse of what went down over four epic days in Idaho. Join us as we Get Deep in Idaho!

About Toy Soldier Productions

Toy Soldier Productions started in Bozeman, Montana in the fall of 2009. The original idea was to make a “Montana Movie.” We never thought it would become much more than that. We hoped to have a few screenings in some local bars, showcasing the state to those who already knew all about it. Come Find Us was a surprise hit for us and the success of the first film inspired us to do a second, Set Your Sights. We are now in our third year of production, and look forward to learning new things and meeting new friends each and every day.

Keep an eye out this fall for the latest release from Toy Soldier Productions, where more from the Brundage trip will be captured.
