4 days. 30 adventurers. Skiing, snowboarding, dancing, and healing in the Sierras.
In March 2025, the Skate Hunnies community took over Mammoth Lakes for our second annual Winter Wellness Retreat in partnership with Outbound Mammoth Hotel—and it was pure magic. Think: crisp mountain air, exhilarating on-mountain days filled with skiing and snowboarding, dreamy hot springs, cozy breakfasts, and the kind of connection that fuels the soul.
🗻 What We Did: Movement, Magic & Mountain Moments
This year’s theme was all about connecting with nature and community—and that’s exactly what we did.
We doubled our group size this year (yay for growth!) and added an extra day to fully drop into the flow. Highlights included:
❄️ Snowboarding & skiing meetups with trip leads to guide the way
🧖♀️ A hot spring adventure that felt like a portal to another world
🛷 Hot tub hangs and cozy conversations by the fireplace
🪩 A now-favorite Canyon Lodge Après (this reel says it all)
🎨 Keep Her Wild Craft Festival—a makers market showcasing local female artisans
🥞 Delicious daily breakfasts + fuel from our sponsor Koia
This retreat had structure where it mattered—but plenty of flexibility for people to truly rest, play, and connect. Everyone felt held. Everyone felt free.
🏨 Our Dream Host: Outbound Mammoth Hotel
A huge shoutout to Outbound Mammoth for being our home for the weekend. With stunning views, warm hospitality, a vibey lobby lounge, and on-site amenities like hot tubs and sauna, it gave us the perfect mix of comfort and adventure. Our group filled the space with laughter, ski boots, and our buzzing energy. We can’t wait to be back.
