BETHEL — More than 250 attendees were at the Granite Backcountry Film Festival on Saturday, February 25, at The Gem Theatre in Bethel.

Hosted by Granite Backcountry Alliance (GBA) and Mahoosuc Land Trust (MLT), the Film Fest raised funds to support GBA’s backcountry terrain management in Maine and specifically the Black & White Glade, a collaboration between GBA, MLT, and Black Mountain of Maine (BMOM) at MLT’s Rumford Whitecap Mountain Preserve.

The Mahoosuc Mountain Search & Rescue Team set up a trailer and fire pit outside.
