Powderwhores- Femme Fatale

1/7/2016

Well luckily the only fatalities were the very large sausage that Stephanie hauled in and lots of powder stashes. We slayed those stashes.
I had wanted this to be my first VLOG, but alas, my Shimano Action Cam and I didn't really get along too well on this trip. So you're stuck reading my (hopefully short) write-up.

Obligatory feminist statement- notice the safety first ladies with their beacons.
This was our second annual Powderwhores adventure and I was thrilled that Stephanie decided to take the reigns and spearhead the weekend. We were booked to capacity both nights with a phenomenal group of women who brought a wide variety of experience including a few backcountry virgins and some ladies who really get after it to the Jackal Hut. Check out www.otinasadventures.com to learn about Otina Fox, who is on track to be the 3rd female to ski all of Colorado's 14er's!
There has been talk of including men on the Powderwhores trip; I am very outspoken in my opposition to this talk. Although men are great and they can spice up any adventure, I think there is something magical about bringing a group of women into a situation and a sport that is typically male dominated, and seeing how we thrive. Not only did we ski all day and find the powder goods over and over again, but we went on to party hard, make incredible meals and even engineer a sweet kicker outside of the hut.
I'm so proud to be a part of this tradition and I'm so looking forward to Powderwhores 2016!
Forgive all the hoots; this stash was truly amazing.
