CPG Girls Sweep the Chugach Open

Chugach Powder Guides employees Kiana Putnam, Alannah Rice, and Kami Cabana navigated
their way down the slope of Jimʼs Rock in the zone known as “The Shadows” in the Chugach
Open big mountain competition last weekend at Alyeska Resort. The venue was a serious no-fall
zone with lots of exposed rock and some surprising slough. It definitely required good route
planning and slough management skills. Putnam took first for the Womenʼs snowboard division,
Rice took first for Womenʼs alpine, and Cabana took second in Womenʼs alpine. All three laid
down gnarly runs through really technical terrain, showcasing their ability to plan and execute
some pretty sweet lines. Nice work ladies!
