On today's episode Aimee is joined by Julie McGuire, better known as the Queen of the Catskills. She has recently become the third person and first woman to backcountry ski all of the Catskill High Peaks and is currently on a film tour for her short film, Queen of the Catskills. On this episode we dive into her journey into skiing, the importance of finding passion in adulthood and how she is shaping the next generation by increasing accessibility and education on the trails. Julie is an icon and is shaping the sport, in particular on the East Coast, by changing what people perceive backcountry skiing to be.
Learn more about Julie and the film here or check out her Instagram @queenofthecatskillsny.
Julie has also put together an awesome backcountry resource document that can be accessed here.
