Other Local Historical Societies & Museum Events

VTSSM First Tracks Award Presentation

A special evening honoring Noah Dines, the Vermont Ski and Snowboard Museum's 2025 First Tracks Award recipient and the Stowe skier who redefined what's possible in human-powered skiing. In 2024, at age 30, Noah set a staggering new world record for the most human-powered vertical feet skied in a single calendar year. This special Red Bench Speaker Series program will begin with Noah's First Tracks award presentation, including the premier of a short film produced by the Museum for this honor. David Goodman a ski journalist and author, will then engage Noah in conversation about what is was like to live much of the year out of his truck, taking only a handful of rest days, how he embraced the physical, mental, and logistical challenges of the undertaking and what lies ahead for him.
