Laura MacInnes
Summit County
Born and raised in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan (Yooper!), and have called Colorado home for the past 9 years. My favorite activity is skiing, and my favorite spot to do that is the Gore Range! I also enjoy mountain biking, climbing, camping, backpacking, hut trips and traveling. I moved to CO for my job in Finance and for the mountains.

Brooke Morehardt
Summit County
Brooke grew up in the Midwest but spent summers in Buena Vista, Colorado where rafting the Arkansas River and hiking 14ers sparked a lifelong connection to the outdoors. She now lives in Silverthorne and works as the Director of Outdoor Education Programs at Keystone Science School, helping kids learn through hands-on science experiences in nature.
She enjoys mountain biking, hiking, skiing (uphill/downhill/cross country), and playing rugby. With two young kids (ages 4 and 2), outdoor time often means weekly family ski days at A-Basin or hikes on local trails.
Even with a full schedule, she values time outside as a way to recharge and stay connected. She’s passionate about helping foster a supportive and inclusive female outdoor community.

Jodine Pahl
Summit County
I grew up in Wisconsin and spent five years in Nevada before calling Colorado home for the past 13 years. In my time in Colorado, I have lived in Denver and Crested Butte, and now call Summit County home. I love any reason to get outside, especially with my two dogs. I love hiking, mountain biking, skiing (downhill and cross country), paddleboarding, camping, and running. When I'm not in Summit County, you can find me traveling across the globe in search of new outdoor adventure

Stephanie Warner
Summit County
Stephanie became an Ambassador to help women forge new and stronger friendships through shared passions in the outdoors. Her personal passions focus on wellness, community building, individual empowerment, and preservation of our treasured outdoor spaces.
In winter, she loves all types of skiing, especially backcountry skiing and skinning inbounds. In the warmer months, she can be found mountain biking, road biking, whitewater kayaking & rafting, hiking, traveling in her van, and socializing on sunny outdoor patios.
Stephanie enjoys planning multi-day adventures like ski hut tours, mountain bike trips, river trips, and group adventures overseas. She loves that these offer focused opportunities to strengthen skills, stamina, and relationships, with time and space to forge deep bonds that can otherwise be hard to build in busy adulthood.

Amanda Wheelock
Summit County
Amanda has a passion for sharing all the incredible experiences nature can provide - the awe, the adventures, the tranquility, the joy - with anyone who's willing to get just a little outside their comfort zone. That passion has led her to a career working to protect and promote public lands and it's led her to help build a community of empowered women through GRGA! Amanda grew up just outside of Chattanooga, TN, and has moved 26 times across 6 states since leaving her childhood home (she currently resides in Silverthorne). She's always looking for friends to join for a ski, run, or gym sesh!
Thanks to these amazing women for helping kick off a wonderful winter season of growth.
