Fire On the Mountain
Streaming video - 2003
The goal was clear: defeat the Nazis who were entrenched high in the snowy mountains of Italy. Drawing together an elite group of champion skiers, mountain climbers and European mountaineers, the U.S. Army created the 10th Mountain Division, America's only mountain and winter warfare fighting unit. From the intensive training atop the Colorado Rockies to the spectacular night climb of Italy's Riva Ridge - where the 10th scored their biggest victory against Hitler's troops - Fire on the Mountain tells the thrilling story of these rugged, courageous men in all their glory. Nominated for Best Documentary at the **Sundance Film Festival**. "*Bracing exploits, hearty outdoorsmen powerfully captured on film!*" - ***The Ne...w York Times***
