TETON GRAVITY RESEARCH PRESENTS:
PRESSURE DROP
| | |
Pressure Drop is the latest chapter in a 30-year journey—forged from a dream, fueled with cash from commercial fishing in Alaska, and driven by an obsession with life on the edge.
This film follows the world’s best skiers and snowboarders, alongside the next generation, through Alaskan spines, stacked pillow lines, massive cliffs, giant couloirs, deep powder, and insane jumps. From Norway to British Columbia, California to Alaska, and home in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, each line becomes a brushstroke in the art of descent.
Pressure Drop captures that fleeting space between calm and chaos—when breath slows, vision sharpens, and the mountain demands everything. It’s the moment before gravity takes over. For three decades, we’ve stood at the edge—where fear meets flow and everything else fades. Pressure Drop continues the tradition of what it means to dedicate your life to the fall line.
LOCATIONS
Jackson Hole, Wyoming, Lofoten Islands, Norway, Valdez, Alaska, Grand Targhee, Wyoming, Interior British Columbia, Haines, Alaska, Palisades Tahoe, California.
STARRING
Sage Cattabriga-Alosa, Ian McIntosh, Nick McNutt, Kai Jones, Parkin Costain, McRae Williams, Maggie Voisin, Colter Hinchliffe, Jim Ryan, Molly Armanino, Kirsty Muir, Grace Henderson, Troy Podmilsak, Teal Harle, Kelly Hilleke, Madison Rose Ostergren, Simon Hillis, Jeremy Jones, Cass Jones, Mia Jones.

The Quiet Mundane
Emma Bergman

Emma Bergman's The Quiet Mundane in our Jessie Wilber Gallery
"The Quiet Mundane captures everyday moments, creatures, and people from my life. My process is as much an approach to living as it is a body of work. Rather than viewing my life as a series of monumental moments, I am learning to appreciate the mundane, the repetitive, and the beauty of small things. Rather than letting the mundane slip by, I am attempting to bring the viewer’s focus to the little corner of the world that I inhabit. I believe by observing this, sitting with it for hours, and translating it into paint, I am elevating the mundane to something of importance, as something precious to be savored."

Not So Far Away
Russell Brausch
| | |
Russell Brausch's Not So Far Away in our Lobby and Weaver Room Galleries.
"A century of fire suppression, the loss of Indigenous cultural burning, and climate change have created today’s wildfire crisis. It is not a matter of if a fire will come, but when. Federal land employees work tirelessly with little progress, caught between containing fires and restoring damaged landscapes. As hotter, drier climates push fire back into the land through both destruction and controlled burns, my creative process seeks to illuminate this complex history. Through painting, burning, drawing, and textiles, I open different entry points into the wildfire conversation. My research expands on acknowledging and redefining America’s relationship with fire."

| NORTH STAIRS RENOVATION UPDATES | | |
We are so pleased that the original treads were able to be re-used in our updated stairway! They look amazing and we cannot wait to see them cleaned, shined, and perfected.
Please be mindful that the sidewalk to the north of the Emerson on Babcock is closed for the duration of this project, for your safety.
We are excited to partner with PRG commercial and the Historical Preservation Board of Gallatin County to transform this highly-utilized historic entryway, and would love to partner with you, too! Every contribution helps us land closer to our goal. With your generosity and a dollar-for-dollar match from Jenny Kahrl, we now only need $27,050 more dollars to reach our overall funding goal of $150,000!
Give today to support the necessary work required to keep our facilities safe, welcoming, and honoring to our history.
