Today is the big day! Today I am celebrating my last day of cancer treatment at @fredhutchprotontherapy !!!!

To the staff, nurses, doctors, and technicians… hats off to you! I have the upmost respect and immense value in the kindness, compassion and strength you give your patients during every step and turn of navigating their cancer journey. From the daily smiles and encouragement to the VIP parking passes and unlimited snack bar… y’all made me feel like a princess in pajamas. You are all very special people! 💞

Earlier this year I was diagnosed with a rare skull cancer, olfactory neuroblastoma. So rare that it presents itself in only 0.02% of cancer tumors. I spent the past two years navigating symptoms, scans, tests, emergency room visits, DR’s and specialists to finally get a diagnosis. In the beginning of that time, I realized how hard I needed to advocate for myself but was then followed by the greatest support and care from my team of surgeons, oncologists and healthcare providers. We indeed have a wild healthcare system but also some of the most valued and highly skilled professionals a human being could ask for. I will put my life in their hands over again, and again. (But hopefully not)

Although I am not quite out of the woods. I feel incredibly lucky and I would not be here on this earth today without the unwavering support, prayers and strength from my medical team, family, friends, co-workers, strangers, dogs and HORSES! 😆 Chaco, @laineywilson and @dollyparton , jigsaw puzzles, soups and pajamas. Thank you everybody and Jesus, you all play a vital role in my life in every aspect and everyday🫶🏼✨ taken in Fred Hutch, Cancer Care Alliance by @krynmercee

Women can design terrain parks. Women can build rail gardens. Women can rip snowcats. Women can shape features and rake lips. Women can hit challenge rails. Women just can.

We took some time to bask in the magic of creating and building the rail garden. An incredible experience for three women, and a historic moment for Stevens Pass. Features were broken. A snowcat sprayed hydrologic fluid and broke down in the middle of our build. And some negativity and nay sayers that got the best of us in our exhausted moments.

But we weren’t defeated. At the end of a grueling two day complete build top to bottom we sat at the entry of our rail garden geeked over what we had accomplished. We weren’t even aware yet that 130 women had signed up for the women’s ride day, capping our capacity, not to mention the dozens of women that showed up unattached because registration was limited. We love you taking up space you rebels!!

As we rolled into a late afternoon park sesh, we didn’t realize that we would stand at the top of midway terrain park with over 80 women. It was epic to see the staging area entirely full as women were bursting out of the rope lines claiming a spot of park territory. We admit that we were not prepared for such a turn out, and we can’t wait to deliver an even better experience next year.

We also know this build wouldn’t have been possible without leaders at Stevens Pass trusting us with this opportunity, our teammates who showed up for us when we needed more hands, the ladies who volunteered their time to hand out merch, and all of our larger park community that supported us.

We also want to thank inspiring organizations like those north of us like @shredcatz @nothinginthepantry and @rudegirlsshop - south of us like @hoodgirlzzz and the home team ladies like @edge_pnw 🧡 And major shoutout to @trollhaugentroll home of Take the Rake, this rebellion is catching fire.

Keep taking up space you sensational babes, and we’ll see you next year. taken in Stevens Pass by @krynmercee

For the first time in Stevens Pass History, we had women design and build a terrain park! It was an amazing experience to see it come to fruition and being given the platform to perform. We couldn’t have done it without our hardworking team and the guys who support us! 👊🏼✨🫶🏼 Thank you!!! To everyone for letting us have our space to dream and create. We love this for us but more importantly for the future of the women’s snow industry! We are small but mighty ❤️‍🔥💪🏼 by @krynmercee
