Missing My Brave Ski Mom

November 23, 2022 by braveskimom

This post has been 5 months in the making. So many times I’ve sat down to write it, and so many times, I couldn’t begin to type. It was just too hard. But with Thanksgiving tomorrow, I am feeling thankful for you, for my family and friends, and for my mother, who passed away unexpectedly […]

Happy Thanksgiving From The Grand Canyon

November 25, 2010 by braveskimom

Month-By-Month With The Brave Ski Mom: November

November 2, 2010 by braveskimom

Spread the Love (thanks!)

Welcome

I'm Kristen, a western Colorado mom, wife and trail boss in a busy outdoor family. Our family has a passion for skiing and my goal is to provide information to help other families enjoy their skiing adventures. Whether you have tiny toddlers just learning to slide or grown children with whom you're planning a reunion, you're in the right place. Cheers!
