Where Olympians are Made

Where Olympians are Made

The path to the Olympics doesn’t always begin in a training facility. For Shannon Dunn-Downing, it began on public lands in the mountains of Colorado. No memberships. No lifts. Just space, snow and determination. Today, those same public lands continue to shape athletes, families and communities across the country. Public lands create opportunity. It is where Olympians are made. 🏔️🏂 #2026WinterOlympics #PublicLands #WhereOlympiansAreMade #OlympicJourney #Snowboarding #ForestService #OutdoorRecreation
