My name is Heather and I'm from NE Wisconsin... yeah we're getting really hit this year! I've been downhill skiing since I was 6 (25 years and you don't need to do the math! ) and just got my 6 year old daughter started last year and she LOVED it! I've been a little here and there the last 10 years or so but want to get out there more now that it's a family event. Things have definitely progressed over those last ten years as far as equipment is concerned! Wow! So that's what landed me here! Hope you all have a Happy New Year and stay safe!
