Adventure for All

There's nothing like the feeling of stepping out of your comfort zone and challenging yourself to take on something new.  It's scary, it's intense and it's a rush.  But tackling adventure took on a whole new meaning after watching these brave women set their sights on what some would call the unthinkable.  Rather than spend their days spinning around town in a wheelchair, and they leapt out of their chairs to go zip lining, kayaking and horseback riding--what a thrill!  Camp Discovery invites women who are full time wheel chair users to spend the weekend in Colorado, connecting with others, and  pushing themselves to the limits, always to be rewarded with great success.  Watch:

Holidays in Vail

Every year, I carve out a special time in my schedule to return to Vail to teach snowboarding.  There's nothing better than being outdoors, feeling the snow under foot, wind in my hair, and getting paid to tour the mountain with happy people on vacation!  I love meeting new people and teaching them some sweet snowboard skills to build confidence on the mountain.

 

The week between Christmas and New Years is one of the busiest times of year.  There's plenty of hustle and bustle in this ski town.  I always look forward to the New Years Eve festivities.  We always ski down the mountain with flaming road flares in our hands as part of the big holiday torchlight parade and fireworks show.  For me, that usually means one road flare, and one GoPro in hand.  :P

Take a peek at my Christmas present to myself!  Ready to roam the roads of Colorado this winter!  :) Vroom Vroom!
