Inspiration for skiers over 50, or 60, or 70+

SO many on this forum!!! But you must talk to @Ursula Howland - Amazing World Cup German team freestyle competitor and teacher of skiing - for 43 years now, 27 of them in Big Sky Montana (and counting). Ursula is part of that generation of women skiers who made it as a professional in the macho man's ski world through sheer talent, athleticism and stubborn perseverance, and who helped to pave the way for the rest of us.
Would LOVE to do a clinic with @Ursula

I am working on a story about women skiers over 50 who are still going strong and skiing beautifully. I would appreciate your suggestions about women (anywhere in the world) to feature!
Hope you'll keep us informed of who you find!

Really can't think of a name to add beyond those in this thread or the older thread linked in Post #1.

An easy way to way to find women over 70 who love to ski powder is to hang around Alta midweek once the season gets going. The Wild Old Bunch includes quite a few women. Can find them taking a break around 11am at Alf's. Some are wives who only ski when the snow is good. A few years ago I overheard a group of three women lamenting that it was a "groomer day" during late season because it wasn't warming up enough to soften things off-piste. My guess is that the average age for that group was probably about 75.

I'm doing an Online PSIA clinic on aging.. depressing.. Keep moving, keep skiing as the reality of it all. Get all the discounts you can!

I’m trying to decide on color. I know I want the long sleeve tee.

Not Redl; The "On Wine Alone" doesn't show up as well....

And, although I have really great lined flannel shirt in purple, every other purple T or golf shirt in purple has NOT held its color!

Gray or one of the pinks?
