From the Emmy-nominated journalist who documented disappearing salmon across the Northwest, comes the chase of a lifetime in the new wildlife film, On Grizzly Ground.
“Following grizzlies is risky, but warranted,” says Kris Millgate, outdoor journalist and owner of Tight Line Media. “Greater Yellowstone bears are expanding their presence in the West so the odds of us being in their way as they make their way are going up. I want to show you how we help and hinder their recovery while also celebrating nature at its wildest.”
Tight Line Media, in partnership with Toyota and Four Wheel Campers, premieres the new wildlife film, August 10, 2023 in Idaho Falls, Idaho at Colonial Theater. Exclusive VIP Premiere Party hosted by Raymond James. Tickets on sale now.
“We believe as long as Mother Nature is broad and supports foul, fish and fauna of all kinds, then the home of humankind will be worthy for the children of our greatgrandchildren to build their lives,” says Mark Young, Raymond James branch manager and registered principal. “Kris Millgate reminds us of what is at stake. We are proud to sponsor her efforts.”
Millgate spent summer 2022 working out of a Toyota Tundra while following federally protected grizzlies through the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, which includes Yellowstone National Park and Grand Teton National Park plus portions of Idaho, Montana and Wyoming. Watch 20 episodes from the On Grizzly Ground road trip.
"I'm extremely excited about our opportunity to support Kris Millgate’s next major production. What Kris endured while following grizzlies for this new film is inspirational," says Travis Zmak, Teton Toyota managing partner. “We are committed to the long term goal of maintaining access to wild places and preserving habitat for wildlife. We think about the generations to come knowing our investment in people like Kris Millgate, and projects like On Grizzly Ground, benefit everyone."
True to Millgate’s multimedia commitment, her third book My Place Among Beasts also publishes in August. It’s the backstory on what she endured, stitches included, during the grizzly expedition. Pre-order copies now.
“Four Wheel Campers and our customers are passionate about our relationship with the outdoors," says Dan Welty, Four Wheel Campers Vice President. "We are fortunate to be involved with Kris Millgate and her quest to discover and enlighten people about our natural world.”
