Vermont Ski & Snowboard Museum Honors Skier Who Redefined Human-Powered Skiing
Noah Dines is getting some much deserved recognition from the Vermont Ski and Snowboard Museum who are awarding him the 2025 First Tracks Award which honors Vermonters under 35 who have made a significant accomplishment in snowboarding or skiing and enriched Vermont’s skiing or riding heritage.
Last year at age 30, Dines set a new world record for the most human-powered vertical feet skied in a single calendar year. Dine began and ended his remarkable feat in Stowe, Vermont where he clocked in an astounding 3,590,097 vertical feet between January 1st and December 30th (equivalent to climbing Mount Everest over 120 times). His journey for the record took him around the world including the European Alps and South America but it all circled back to the Green Mountain State.
The award presentation is set for Friday, January 16, 2026. Doors to the museum at 1 South Main Street, Stowe, open at 5:45 PM, and guests are invited to explore the exhibits and socialize. The award ceremony begins at 6:30 PM. Event admission is $25 and must be purchased in advance. Capacity is limited so purchase your tickets soon to reserve your spot. BUY TICKETS HERE!
Huge shoutout to Noah Dines who averaged more than 9,800 vertical feet every day for a calendar year. Cheers!
