Obviously, I am a mom and a skier. I am not so brave, but I try every day to meet life’s challenges with a smile on my face. Curious about why I am the BRAVE ski mom? The answer is here.
I am a Colorado native, from the Western Slope, far from Denver. I ski over 40 days each year, which means pretty much every weekend day with some midweek days scattered in here and there. I love road biking and have just discovered that I actually can mountain bike, which is a good thing considering where I live.
Me, the Brave Ski Mom
I love animals and would fill my home with pets and my yard with livestock if it weren’t for the pesky coyotes in the neighborhood. I am trying to master Spanish. I love good cheese and citrus fruit.
I also love to write. If you are interested in me writing for you, contact me.
If I didn’t live in Colorado, I would live in Utah. And if Utah weren’t an option, you could find me in France.

Kudos chica! You know your longest-standing friend will ALWAYS ski with you anywhere….Colorado, Utah, France. Buena suerte con su blog!!!
I found this blog from a post on Andrew Norcross Blog you made about a social media widget not performing as you liked. I must say this is a really pretty Blog, what theme and skin is it, if u don’t mind me asking ?
Hi, the template is WordPress Twenty Ten. Thanks!
BTW, the Andrew Norcross Simple Social Sharing widget has turned out to work really well. The confusion was on my end!
Glad to connect with a fellow writer/mommy blogger/skier/biker etc…
It’ll be fun to swap stories.

Thanks for the great info!
Glad to meet you. I become one of your FaceBook followers.
Nice work you are doing here. Do you ever do any web content writing for people?
I do some other writing, but for other skiing websites and for print in Western Colorado. I’ll be in touch! Thanks for asking.
Just found your site. I’m a non-skiing mom who learned to ski at 40 so I could be out with my kids…who after 1 season, out ski me!
I am also the mom of a girl & boy lacrosse player. My 65 year old parents LOVE lacrosse, although I wondered that too when my son started. Now they say it is hard to switch back and forth and not yell “hit ‘em” at the girls games!
I love your comment! The boys and girls games are so different. I am in awe of the athletes in both sports — amazing skill and coordination!
I hope you’ll keep skiing. Kids do have a tendency to “out do” us moms (and dads). But I always just tell myself that’s the goal — I want them to be better than me in every way!
Take care and thanks again for commenting!
What a great blog. Thanks for sharing!
You are welcome! Thanks for reading. Cheers!
Congratulations, nice blog! I wish there where more mom’s like you out there, very inspiring, well done! Do you guys ever come skiing in Europe?
Cheers,
Fabo
Thanks Fabo! You made my day! We have spent a lot of time in Europe — in the summers: hiking in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Chamonix, Courcheval. Winters we’ve been bound to North America. I want to change this! When we get to Europe for skiing, I’ll let you know! I’ll check out your ski school. Cheers!
Glad I found your blog. I live in beautiful Colorado as well, and your ski tips and information is very helpful.
Thanks RJ! I just visited your Cozy Cabin! So glad you’re enjoying Colorado and snowy mountain fun!
