About this listen
"Hailing from the remote and snowy island of Newfoundland, Michaela believes in the importance of preserved wilderness and untouched powder. An environmentalist by osmosis and endurance athlete by choice, Michaela spent her formative years deep in backcountry fjords and remote mountains while recreating and guiding in her childhood 'backyard' of Gros Morne National Park. She finds the greatest form of happiness skiing deep backcountry snow. Michaela has spent the past decade discovering the gratification of human propelled travel in a full time way, ski mountaineering in Alaska, running ultramarathons on arctic, desert and mountain trails of the US, and bike packing through South America. She's taking this passion into her professional life now, working as a tailguide in the ski industry while she strives toward earning her lead guide certifications." Tune in for a conversation about the backcountry skiing scene in Newfoundland, mentorship and exploring Northern BC's plentiful mountain ranges on skis. BONUS: Michaela and I made it through the episode without talking about our dogs even once.
