Humans of Reno: A Skier’s Tale

Reno has many skiers and snowboarders and even when they aren’t on the slopes, they seem to be constantly thinking about it.

Though the weather is heating up, Sidney Andrew is not letting her love for skiing go downhill (pun intended). Andrew, being a Colorado native, has been skiing all of her life. The sport has an element of danger, but Andrew is open to the challenge. She lives for the feeling of accomplishment she gets after a long run down the hill. Listen to the clip above to find out how Andrew started down a slippery slope but ended up enjoying the ride.
