Tired, irritable, stressed out? Try nature! (check out naturerx.com to see a very funny short film from Banff). But seriously, I inhale the stuff. Taking in a deep breath of cold, Canadian air today. Stoked to show #akgirls_way tonight! #bigmtndreams #imafreakofnature

A year and a half ago, I went on my first ski trip to Alaska. It was the culmination of three years of dreaming and planning with @liz_daley, and we did it in a special style, snow camping from a plane drop and hiking and climbing up the steep lines to shred down. @_jt_photo filmed and edited a short video,and #akgirls_way became a reality. When I found out it got accepted into the #banffmountainfilmfestival, I booked a ticket immediately! I'm excited to be up here in Banff for a couple of days to give this film new life, to see it again through a new lens and to continue celebrating Liz's life. Who else is up here in Banff?#livelikeliz photo: @jaybeyerimaging @goalzero #solarlife

Happy Halloween from Little Cottonwood Canyon! I love getting dressed up- this year, I'm a clown. This is the third year in a row that @brookegaynes and I have done a Halloween costume climb! So much fun! Have a fun and safe night everyone. Photo: @rob.lea

I often reminisce about my trip to Chamonix with fond memories about the excitement of climbing big mountains to ski down. But what I've come to realize about moments like these is that they are not about summitting. I'm learning that the true joy comes from the shared experience and the sense of belonging we get. The mountains allow us to strip away all the complexities of day to day life and focus on simply living. That's the appeal, revealing the authentic self and being able to have a deeply emotional shared human experience.
