This past week I watched a movie called 180 Degrees South by Woodshed Films which in the end had me contemplating a several month trip to Patagonia with the Element loaded down with gear and a couple trout bum friends in tow. Of course I can't just drop everything and steal away but this film was nothing short of inspiring.
180 Degrees South is a journey to Patagonia by way of following the footsteps of another journey decades before. Dirtbag surfer and climber Jeff Johnson and his crew of friends head south to Patagonia and meet up with Yvon Chouinard and Doug Tompkins who years before, with their group of friends, had surfed new breaks, climbed new routes, and began to uncover the secrets of Patagonia.
This film is stunningly filmed and really worth a watch. Check it out on Netflix or on DVD.
The 180 Degrees South website is quite interactive with many clips and trailers to watch so spend a few minutes there as well.
