Banff screened more than 50 movies this year—their picks of the year’s best adventure and environmental films. We narrowed that list down to our ten favorites based on what really hit us in the gut. Some excellent films aren’t on here—including Art of Flight, The Freedom Chair, and All.I.Can—but we already featured those online. Think we missed something something else? Let us know about it in the comments section below.

10. SPOIL
9. 40 Days at Base Camp
8. Race for the Nose
7. The Man and the Mammoth
6. Obe and Ashima
5. Kadoma
4. Towers of the Ennedi
3. Solitaire
2. Chasing Water
