Dermatone Rocks!


What's up everyone! (All 6 of you...)

I picked up a new sponsor today! Dermatone is an incredible skincare brand specifically formulated for people like me, i.e. people who spend the majority of their days on top of big, sunny mountains. I could not be more psyched!

Check them out here ---> www.dermatone.com

(This stuff is great , especially for wounded lips)


Tons of SPF and love,
Meesh

p.s. Spent my afternoon at Woodward at Copper learning all kinds of cool flips. This day ROCKED.

I'm on the homepage of Snowboard-Mag.com!

Which is super cool, really.

Slashing some the best opening day snow of my life! (Photo: Jeff Meyer)

Yesterday reminded me why I love living in Breckenridge. The snow was amazing. There was none of that bare, icy chatter you might usually associate with opening days. The sun was out in full force, the pancakes were flowing as freely as a mountain stream, and the Park Lane triple line was immaculately groomed. It was a great day to be alive and snowboarding.
We're supposed to get about 6 inches of snow here this weekend, which is long overdue. I have high hopes for an epic week!

Lovelovelovelovelove!

Meesh's First Blog!

Hello, blog people!
I just moved back to Breckenridge a few weeks ago to start my winter life back up. It's been a big (but AWESOME) adjustment since I spent my summer living in New York City. I forgot how quiet and peaceful it was up here in Summit County. I grew so used to falling asleep to street noise that I've had to readjust to silence!
Life at 10,000 ft is another big adjustment. I barely remembered to follow the high altitude baking instructions when I made muffins this morning! But luckily, this is my 2nd season up here and my lungs have learned to adapt to anything I throw at them. Especially when I make them go on long, hilly hikes and push it hard on the stairclimber at my gym.
I've got a really big season in store for me. Lots of photo and video shoots planned (check out my man, Dave Lehl @ http://www.davelehl.com/) I'm also taking a trip practically every month. Sometimes TWO! Wolf Creek is first up later this month. I'm pretty excited about riding some of that legendary Southern CO powdah!
I did a photoshoot for Screamer Hats (one of my awesome sponsors) down in Boulder a few weeks ago. It was super fun because we shot most of it in an empty skate park and then drank a whole bunch of Jamba Juice. I can't wait to see the pictures! You should check them out, too when they're up @ www.screamer.com!
Anyway, that's what I've been up to lately. I'm about to go shred some sweet slush at A-Basin with my coach, Jeff Meyer!

Love, peace, and chairlift grease

p.s. I hope you enjoy these pics. They're from some of my favorite moments last year.


Woodward at Copper is the most magical place on earth. Disney ain't got nothin'!

Being in your local paper is cool because the maintenance guy in your apartment building will recognize you and give you a big high five.

Mammoth has the best wallrides!

A nice little cliff in Snowbird, Utah.

Goofing around with the lovely Tara Dakides in the Screamer Hat booth at last year's SIA Tradeshow. I had just downed a 5-Hour Energy and therefore, decided to love everyone. Even total strangers walking by!

Me and my boyfriend, Travis Rice.

Checking out the Dew Tour halfpipe in Breck, only hours after it was completed.

Shooting backcountry powder pics with Dave Lehl makes me approximately THIS happy.

Pipeside in Aspen, watching the Men's halfpipe finals. Thanks to Meg Pugh for the sweet hookup!
