2012 Whitewater Grand Prix Recap
Nicole Mansfield’s Ski Camping Adventure
Fill-in-the-Blank Bio:
I’m not lollygagging, I’m just easily distracted and excited, or at least that’s what my teacher says. I’ve spent no less than all of my post-college life skiing and kayaking wherever I can find snow and water. While scouting the stouts, I occasionally pee my pants, but that doesn’t mean I can’t run some too! My favorite food to eat is salad, but I also love cooking the perfect hotdog.
