                      :1977

Where do you hail from?:

                   Born in Duncan, raised in the lower mainland, been in Whistler for 8 years.

What pays the rent (and supports your powder habit??!):

                  food running at the Rim Rock Cafe, Office work, and various other things over the years.

I like:

                  chocolate, dancing, adventures of all kinds, things that make me laugh, drumming, snowboarding, surfing, climbing, hiking, wakesurfing, photography, music, learning....

I don't like (you're THAT picky?!):

                 ONIONS. sin cebolla por favor.

Favorite food mmmmm:

               Indian or Thai curry. and chocolate.

Favorite bevy:

             apple juice on the rocks. so tasty!

Favorite place for apres:

            The GLC

My favourite run:

           Log Jam on a powder day

My favourite music to shred to:

          hmm.... depends on what I'm riding but I like morcheeba on a powder day or stuff like that... makes me feel like I'm surfing, or in a movie.

First run of the day (WAKE UP!!):

        Jersey bowl... from the cafe cliffs.

Last run of the day (cruuuuuisin down):

         Opal Bowl down Ridge Runner then onto Twist and Shout then out through Cruiser Rolls and lower mainline then Yellow Brick Road.

Ski, snowboard, or AC/DC (snowboard and ski, chyea!):

           I like both but I'm a snowboarder.

Snowboarding or skiing ability (newbie? or shredder extrordinaire??!):

          2010 will be my 17th season on my board. I like to cruise fast, but I'm no pro by any means.

Why I should be Miss Powder Mountain in under 250 words (*ahem*!!):
          I drove a snowcat for 3 years, so I can help out in a pinch! I'm a great promoter with a great attitude and a lot of love in my heart and soul in my veins.

Make us laugh, let's hear a joke!:

         Why don't cannibals eat clowns? They taste funny.


Tell us three funny things you think you could get people to do at the party on December 3th at The Longhorn...be creative!:

        cossack dance. leap frog. ballet (or disco)

Why is there no question about being able to rip it on a bike? Here, I'll ask one: Do you prefer downhill riding or downhill riding?
KJ: DH, for sure!
Here's another one: Who's your favourite girl to ride with?
KJ: I would have to say Kaethe. She showed me how to throw caution into the wind and launch it!

;) Miss ya!

I've known Karen since Grade 8 and she is THE BEST CHIK for Ms. Powder. She is outgoing....friendly...and has a beautiful free spirit. There is no competition...she's IT!

K-rec!

Karen, you rock, girl! If you can't be Ms. Powder, then nobody should. Seriously. Ms. Powder should be a fun blonde who is super fun and maybe just a little bit cute. And you are both these things. With extras to go around!! My vote is an easy one!
