SheJumps Ikon Pass supports SheJumps, an organization whose mission is to increase the participation of women and girls in outdoor activities. Partnering with nature, SheJumps creates educational outdoor experiences for girls and women that nurture growth and transformation. “Living my best ski girly era ✨ Today I did a harder green run by myself, first time it was scary, and the second time was scary but fun. Skiing was not on my list of sports that I had interest (for many reasons), so I feel pretty cool now that I can actually do it, have fun and build community around it, especially as a woman of color. 🧡” - Fernanda Jardim (@feerjardim), 24/25 participant “This season has been nothing short of magical! I'm overwhelmed with gratitude for the opportunity to ski at multiple resorts, thanks to the incredible @shejumps organization and their generous Mountain Access Program. Brighton Ski Resort has stolen my heart with its breathtaking views and unforgettable experiences. Alta, on the other hand, pushed me to new limits with its long, challenging runs. Deer Valley delighted me with its whimsical houses, adorned with fun decorations, and Solitude holds a special place in my heart as it's where I learned to ski. I'm so thankful for the chance to explore new mountains, challenge myself, and connect with like-minded women in the outdoors. Thank you, #SheJumps, for empowering women to get outside and pursue their passions!” - Anelisiwe Msomi (@sisiwemsomi), 24/25 participant Native Youth Outdoors For the 25/26 season – in reflection of the changing needs and desires of the Native ski/ride community – Ikon Pass is partnering with the nonprofit Native Youth Outdoors, encouraging more children and families to ski and ride together. Native Youth Outdoors is an organization that is committed to helping people discover and enjoy the great outdoors. Their vision is to create a world where everyone has the opportunity to experience the beauty and wonder of nature. Ikon Pass is proud to support this mission and looks forward to the work we can accomplish together in the years ahead.
