Production
'Valhalla' was filmed over two years in Nelson, British Columbia, to combine artistically filmed extreme skiing and snowboarding with the plot. Instead of using helicopters, production involved hiking up to the shooting locations and overnight camping; many local skiers and snowboarders appear, and there is a naked skiing and snowboarding scene. The final scene, in a rainforest, was shot at Mount Baker in Washington state, with snow trucked in.
The film premiered at the Paramount Theatre in Denver, Colorado, on September 13, 2013.
