ABOUT SHEJUMPS

The SheJumps x Ikon Pass Mountain Access Program aims to support the SheJumps mission 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.

“What this program gave me goes far beyond a pass. It connected me to a community of women who understood what it meant to have to fight for your place in the outdoors. Having women who could show me the ropes and make it clear that I had every right to be there was just as valuable as the pass itself.” – Tiffany P. (@tiiffaniaaa), 25/26 participant

“I came into this expecting time in the mountains and loads of fun, but what I wasn’t prepared for was how much it would shift my perspective on life. This experience has given me more than I could ever have expected, and there is so much I’m grateful to share, not just about snowboarding, but about resilience, presence, and learning how to trust myself in new ways.” – Tommi Adams, 25/26 participant

ABOUT NATIVE YOUTH OUTDOORS

In support 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.

“I fell in love with skiing because it makes me feel free. I’ve stayed in love with the sport all these years because the mountains have taught me about the rewards that come from listening and being in relationship with a place.”

“Our work with Native Youth Outdoors really inspires me because so many see Natives as a part of the past, this work ensures that our youth see themselves with fulfilling and joyous futures on the land.” – Connor Ryan, Ikon Pass Holder & Pro Skier
