PowderGuide is up to something new again! This time, it’s our very own video series: Together with Ebba Forsgren and filmmaker Moritz Krause, we’ve been out in the mountains around Chamonix since last season filming the first three episodes; the rest of the first season will be produced this winter. Of course, it’s all about skiing and mountaineering, but above all, it’s about what’s rarely discussed on the mountain: the fear—or rather, the emotions—we bring with us up there, and how they affect us. Here's a first glimpse, with a few details and a short clip. The full trailer will go live on our YouTube channel on Thursday, November 19, 2026, at 5 p.m.

“Is all this mountain stuff worth the risk?”

Ebba Forsgren has been grappling with this central question since last season, especially after her accident in Chamonix, where she was lucky to escape without serious injuries. The mental trauma stayed with her, though. The first season of EXPOSURE THERAPY will focus on this topic.

EXPOSURE THERAPY — Somewhere between Mind and Mountain

It’s PowderGuide’s first original video series, filmed by filmmaker Moritz Krause. In it, Ebba Forsgren, along with Fritz Crone from the PowderGuide team and female mountain guides, is out in the mountains around Chamonix, skiing and roping up on the glaciers and ridges of the Mont Blanc massif. They take risks, have to assess them and learn to manage them.

Crossing crevasses, navigating weak layers in the snowpack, and traversing steep, exposed terrain—pursuing our passion for the mountains involves risks. Is it all worth the risk? The honest answer is no. But a life without the mountains is just as unimaginable.

Ebba Forsgren. The series revolves around her and the mountains that frighten her.

Get inspired!

This series is designed to make you want to head out into the high mountains yourself, while also providing the information you need to do so. It aims to inspire, but also to educate, so that everyone can head into the mountains feeling a little safer, better prepared, and more self-reliant.

Watch the first glimpses here: the world premiere of a PowderGuide film (clip)!

EXPOSURE THERAPY - Somewhere Between Mind and Mountain

“We have emotions, and that’s okay. We have traumas, and that’s okay, too.” (Ebba Forsgren)

Above all, however, this film makes room for what most mountain films leave out: the fear we carry with us into the mountains, the doubts we have during a tricky traverse, that “Stop—it’s too much” feeling that the weakest member of the group often doesn’t dare to say out loud—all the feelings, sensations, and thoughts that we’d rather keep to ourselves in such situations. Ebba also talks about how women can be completely themselves in the mountains—in an environment that is (unfortunately) still male-dominated.

Ultimately, though, EXPOSURE THERAPY is meant to entertain, to make you laugh—and cry—and to motivate you to head into the mountains with a sense of personal responsibility and reach your own peaks, and to count it as a success even if you turn back just below the summit!

    My love for the mountains was instilled in me from birth, and my passion for filmmaking began when I got my first camera at age ten. Today, I feel very fortunate to be able to combine these two worlds in my job as an outdoor filmmaker. I’m interested in powerful stories, inspiring people, and extraordinary achievements in the outdoor world. Through my adventure films, I want to inspire people to spend more time in nature and push their own limits. I feel most at home with a camera in my hand in the middle of a glacier at -15 °C, ideally during a snowstorm. I currently live in Chamonix, France, and enjoy having some of the most impressive mountains in the Alps right on my doorstep.
