Spring Ski Season Wrap-up

Spring Ski Season Wrap-up

Jun 11, 2016

The season is definitely winding down. For most it was over weeks or even months ago. But we always like to keep things going until the very end, and besides, the conditions up high are really just coming into form in May. We may still get out for another day or two before truly stashing the ski gear away for summer, but I thought I should share some of the...

RBG. 🇺🇸 Christy had the honor of meeting her RBG. 🇺🇸 Christy had the honor of meeting her in Aspen a few years ago. When the host of the gathering introduced them to each other, mentioning Christy’s long list of outdoor achievements, RBG, who had grown into an ardent fitness junkie herself, nodded with approval. You can almost picture the exchange. I always thought it was funny to imagine the two of them together in a fitness class. Christy looked up to her as we all did. She cared so much about many of the important issues of our day, and she embraced her role as one of the last defenders of those rights in the broken system we find ourselves. Diagnosed with terminal cancer, she remained in her role until the day she died. She had to, she knew what was at stake. After she passed away a little more than a month ago, her daughter said her last dying wish was not to be replaced until after the election. We all know the rest of the story. With the dramatic new court alignment, a lot of critical policies that define this country will likely be on the chopping block. RBG fought for us until her last dying breath and without the firewall she helped provide, it’s the voters who are now the last line of defense. So if you haven’t voted, make a plan to do so. Now. There’s more on the line in this election than any other in our lives. Get out and VOTE! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 #election2020 #getoutandvote

Weekend Tip: If you haven’t watched “TransAmer Weekend Tip: If you haven’t watched “TransAmericana” a new film by @rickeygates don’t walk - but run - to watch it free on YouTube. An incredible film about bringing us together as a country and recognizing we have more in common than we are different.

Today is the fall equinox which stands for balance Today is the fall equinox which stands for balance among the seasons and the equality of daylight and darkness. Today also feels like a struggle between darkness and light. I’m hoping it grants us the chance to think about what being truly equal means, to connect with the earth and with each other, and helps us tap into a more sustainable future. Today is also #nationalvoterregistrationday We need to vote like our lives depend on it. Because it does. #vote #vote #vote
I love stopping to experience the awe of the mount I love stopping to experience the awe of the mountains or the wonder of nature. Makes me feel like a tiny part of a massive universe. This sensation of being a small speck within such a grand ecosystem also has the power to make us kinder and more generous people. #lettheoutsidein @stio
