'Hero Snow' and 'Cheese Grater Rocks' Kick Off Teton Gravity Research Ski Series

Check out new ski footage in Utah and Montana from the production studio behind HBO's 'Edge of the Earth' series.

Watch pro skiers hit some of America's best backcountry slopes in the latest edit from Teton Gravity Research.

The in-demand production company kicks off the first episode of its new On Scene series with a couple of trips to Utah and Montana. After scoring some sweet descents in a snow-blanketed Utah, the team heads to Montana for a line scouted last year on an elk-spotting helicopter trip.

"We’re at the top, but it's not looking good," Wiley Miller says in the vid. "It's a no-fall situation … with cheese grater rocks at the bottom."

The Montana snow might have been "less than optimal," the video says, "but the adventure was worth it nonetheless."

Runtime: 8.5 minutes
