Winner Emelie Forsberg’s descent is already the stuff of modern legend, having descended in 11:32, only 2 seconds slower than 2nd place men’s finisher Rickey Gates that same day and blowing away the old women’s record. She came by so fast, in fact, that I was standing there with my hands in my pockets and my camera not ready. Though I can’t prove it, I can confirm the shocking speed of her descent, and can also confirm the rumors that she smiled all the way past. Pictured here is Allie Ostrander.
