Elena Hight has spent most of her career chasing gold, Olympic Gold, X-Games Gold, and US Open Gold, all until recently.  Elena is now at a crossroads in her career, she’s put contests in the rear-view mirror and is chasing bigger mountains and lines.  On the podcast we talk about her movie that documents this journey, Blank Canvas, her contest career and so much more.  It’s another awesome listen!
