Darcie tells us about the Mountain Collaboration for Climate Action which includes four largest ski companies in North America, Alterra Mountain Company, Boyne Resorts, POWDR Corp, and Vail Resorts working together to collaborate on climate and sustainability.
We loved learning about how we as ski moms can help by voicing our support for forward stance initiatives and by doing small things every day.
