Hood, Oregon at one of the funnest places on earth: High Cascade Snowboard Camp. This week Erin and a bunch of talented Finnish pro snowboarders have hosted a session of camp. Fun activities have included snowboard clinics up on the mountain, meanwhile down at the camp site they’ve been flipping into foam pits, playing games of sting pong (where losers have to bare their back to the strike of a ping pong ball), dodge ball, and all-girl Roxy nights. Their still taking reservations for August sessions, so if you’re looking to beat the heat head to the hills!

The Roxy Women’s Session is focused on getting women and girls into the backcountry and improving every aspect of their snowboarding, from powder riding, big mountain, jumps, trees and most importantly teaching safe backcountry travel. “When I say the Roxy Women’s Session is going to be good, I mean the best summer powder, unrestricted terrain, amazing people, and a time you’ll never forget!”-Robin Van Gyn

Sessions include 6 days of guiding & coaching with top female athletes, 7 nights of slopeside lodging, breakfast and dinner, daily tea and snacks “aprés”, a weekly asado (Argentine barbecue featuring the world famous organic, free-range lomo beef), backcountry awareness course, Women in the Industry Private Seminar, Chicas Only slopestyle contest (August 27th-Sept 3rd session only), 24/7 support, 6 days of lift tickets, local airport transfers, and discounted airfare through LAN Airlines in addition to the women-specific coaching, guiding, and activities.

The 2011 Chicken Jam is over and done with. Not exactly the weather we’d hoped for but I had so much fun to riding powder with the girls. The last night we went out to see Trouble and La Roux play up at Canyon lodge and ended up dancing the rest of the night away at The Hyde Lounge. Not a bad way to end an amazing weekend. Here are a few photos from some of the weekends adventures!

Cheers, Torah

Seriously, I used to be a pro, and the game is getting fierce. Just check out all of the action going on over at the Shooting Star Youtube page, it’s pretty impressive. It was really hard for us to select a winner this week because the girls are all riding so strong. But after much deliberation, the winning video of the week belongs to Alice Gorton of Richmond, British Columbia. She impressed us with her skills and pushed it over the edge with her smooth style.

Shout-outs are also due to Danika Duffy and Zoe Mayers, who both tied for a close 2nd. We’ll be sending them extra swag to commend their efforts. Because we’re so stoked on all of the video submissions, in addition to the $1,000 and Roxy snowboard and bindings set up that will go to the overall winner on April 5th, we’ve come up with a bunch of more Roxy product to give away to runner ups. So don’t be afraid, keep those videos coming and we’ll hook you up with fun Roxy goodies! Enter here now.

It’s a wintertime mecca for deep snow with a lawless old west charm that makes it arguably the most legit mountain town in the US- but beware, it is not for the faint of heart. A trip to Silverton involves braving a narrow road with no guardrail and a 2,000 foot vertical drop-off, mingling with the kind of suspect characters that wind up in hard to reach places, and the occasional run ins with wildlife. So if you have an adventurous spirit and enjoy snowy getaways, add Silverton, Colorado to your list of must tries, and if not, just watch this video and see what you’re missing.
