A match

This was a show of Michael Franti and Spearhead recently down in Salt Lake City. The show was put on by Avalaunch. An Organization that will be heard about more and more. Their goal is to promote avalanche education, and environmental stewardship through live music, film and snow. They are starting a movement involving lots of topics that all come back full circle.

The relationship between Spearhead and Avalaunch seemed to be a perfect match for the opening of the movement.
