Great Outdoor Provision Co. & Mountain Hardwear Host Jon Bowermaster
This past week Jon Bowermaster transported over 700 students to Antarctica. Their mode of travel? His new film Terra Antarctica. Bowermaster, a National Geographic sponsored athlete, presented a full screening of his brand new, high-def film chronicling his expedition along the Antarctic Peninsula which premiered this past spring.
Students from Winston-Salem, NC (Wake Forest University and Forsyth Country Day School) along with students from Raleigh, NC (Broughton High School) attended the presentations. Students expressed keen interest as they discussed the impact of warming waters and other effects of human-caused climate change. This was Bowermaster’s second trip to North Carolina in 2009 under the sponsorship of Mountain Hardwear and Great Outdoor Provision Co. Read about his first trip here.
