If you’ve been following SheJumps for a while, you know we’re no strangers to outrageous costumes-especially at our Apres Ski events! This became part of our culture of wanting to show the outdoor community that women are here and we’re not going to take ourselves too seriously! We’re all about mountain dance parties and high fives! SheJumps brings a passionate group of women together to create FUN at our Get the Girls Out fundraising events.

The Right Kind of Sunscreen: Do Your Part

By Tessa Samuels and Tiffany Thio Imagine, just for a moment, plunging deep into the most biologically diverse ecosystem on earth. You sink 150 feet down through blue water that flickers and catches the light that only the shallow areas of the ocean can catch, coming to stop by a bright calcium carbonate structure. Millions of bright, spotted, striped, speckled and patterned fish swim by, their bodies moving sand away from the surface of the coral revealing the billions of co

Snowpack Pale Ale: A Fremont & SheJumps Collaboration

Written by: Krystin Norman, SheJumps Seattle Ambassador The original idea for Snowpack Pale Ale came from drinking a beer after skiing with my boyfriend and friends. We thought it would be super cool to make a collaboration beer with Fremont Brewing (where I work full-time in the Quality Lab as a Microbiologist) and SheJumps (where I have now been volunteering as an Ambassador for almost 4 years). I knew that if I was going to convince the owners of Fremont Brewing to collabo

We know we’re not the only ones who’ve fantasized about being presented a giant check, Publisher’s Clearing House style. Then you can probably imagine the thrill Claire Smallwood felt this winter at the Outdoor Retailer Snow Show when Rob Peterson of Big Agnes did just that! For the past year, proceeds from the sales of the Tulfy SL2+ tent have been earmarked for SheJumps. The Tufly SL2+ tent was designed by an all female design team and Big Agnes wanted to show it’s support

Announcing The Girafficorn Puffy Patch

Don’t you hate it when your outdoor adventures cause a rip, snag or tear in your favorite puffy jacket or skirt?

Big Things for Spring with Big Agnes

Written by: Anna Bernard “Our urge to sleep under the stars and breathe fresh mountain air is what continually drives us and keeps us motivated. In the end, the bluebird summits and nights spent listening to raging creeks or even highway noise have made the journey awesome and, truth be told, we wouldn’t want it any other way.” – The Crew at Big Agnes It began with a simple shipment of sleeping bags and pads to outdoor stores. Fast forward fifteen years later, and Big Agnes

Mountain Hub: Keeping you Safe and Smart on the Mountain

Written by: Anna Bernard There are many things that draw us to the outdoors. Stunning beauty, crisp air and pure adrenaline are just a few. The views are earned and the adventure likely comes with some form of risk. It’s what keeps us coming back. However, in order to keep coming back, safety and smarts must be added to the equation. Between weather, mapping and navigation, staying alert and safe in the outdoors can easily get overwhelming. A company rooted in Park City, UT,

Rooted in Nature: Treeline Coffee Roasters

Making More Than Just a Good Cup of Coffee Written by: Anna Bernard Good things come from the mountains. Whether it be a story, a passion or new-found love, it is no revelation that Mother Nature is the lone source. She is capable of infinite beauty, and provides in endless ways. Just a few years ago, buried within the mountains of Bozeman, Montana, Mother Nature led the way as a small batch of artisan coffee roasters was born.
