    All-Women's Ski Camps?

    Trying to help out an intern with an article she's putting together about the most legitimate all-women's ski camps around for freeride/steeps/backcountry/etc. Not avi courses or groomer skiing, but anything more tailored to ze off piste. So far she's got Silverton Sisters, Kim Reichcleim's camps, Keely's Ski Camp for Girls, and Momentum summer camp up in Whistler. If you have any recs or experience with any, let us know! Thanks...

    Something about the wrinkle in your forehead tells me there's a fit about to get thrown
    And I never hear a single word you say when you tell me not to have my fun
    It's the same old shit that I ain't gonna take off anyone.
    and I never had a shortage of people tryin' to warn me about the dangers I pose to myself.

    And Jessica Baker does a Women's Ski Camp through Exum. They stay at the Alpine Haus and it sounds fun: http://exumguides.com/ublminxportfol...try-ski-weeks/

    Jessica also does stuff through her website Ski Divas: http://skidivas.com/

    Not a camp, but Wendy Fisher hosts clinics at CB. I'm too JONGy to be allowed to post links, but fishski with a .com works. My better half can't make any of the clinics, but if somebody ('s sis, wife, gf, mom) wanted to go in on a private lesson, please chime in. Can't afford it solo, but split a minimum of 3 ways, Feb. 23-27., works. $875 for 7 hours for up to 6 people. Wendy rips.

    Alaska Heliskiing is putting this on, I'm pretty sure. They did one last year and it looked pretty fun. They have a facebook page right here.

    Pro Guiding puts on a women's steep ski clinic at Alpental for Vertfest. Not a full "camp", I guess.

    The article should link to this thread which has better info than the article-
    Something about the wrinkle in your forehead tells me there's a fit about to get thrown
    And I never hear a single word you say when you tell me not to have my fun
    It's the same old shit that I ain't gonna take off anyone.
    and I never had a shortage of people tryin' to warn me about the dangers I pose to myself.

    Mammoth puts on several women's camps for all levels. While not really off posted they do work the ladies in the higher levels in the non groomed steeper runs.

    edit to add Stacy Cook runs some all women camps at Mammoth, but I don't know anything about them.

    I agree it is a constitutional right for Americans to be assholes...its just too bad that so many take the opportunity...    iscariot

    Bump for 15/16 camps (or clinics, or programs).
