Hi, I am Leah Lange, I have just recently joined the Pro Team. I just finished my 4th year at the University of Utah. I have been in Bozeman for three weeks now and have been exploring the mountains. It has been super fun to train with Andy and all the college kids because we go to a new place every single day. Also It has been really fun for me to be on this new team because I really didn't know all the skiers before they all came here. Coming from a very european team it is really neat to be on a team that speaks English!

My goal is to run in every mountain range around Bozeman by the end of the summer!

This week was a really interesting week of training. It is a volume week so we are all trying to put in the quality hours. On Thursday we had a sweet crust ski planned so Ezra and I thought it would be fun to camp out there in Big Sky before the ski. Unfortunately, a bear ran tripped on our tent at night and we were attacked and Ezra was bitten. We very quickly learned that bear spray and bear awareness is a necessity! Luckily we were both able to do the crust ski the next day! But, a pretty crazy way to start off the summer.
