"A love letter and an elegy to a time when innocence could exist before the era of climate change . . . written with a muscularity of experience by a woman whose character was formed on the ski slopes in the Wasatch Mountains of Utah. Ayja Bounous is an emerging writer of conscience. She has a beautiful voice on the page and in place, this place 'shaped by snow.'"
—TERRY TEMPEST WILLIAMS, author of The Hour of Land

"Those who love winter will love this book. But as we steadily erase the season that sets us free from friction, Shaped by Snow will appeal to anyone who has ever looked up and thrilled at the first flakes fat in the autumn sky."
—BILL MCKIBBEN, author of The End of Nature

"Musings on powder, skiing, and the future of the Greatest Snow on Earth from a member of one of the Wasatch Range's royal families that is sure to appeal to Utah skiers."
—JIM STEENBURGH, author of Secrets of the Greatest Snow on Earth

Skier and debut author Ayja Bounous explores threats to the winters and watershed in the face of climate change and the far–reaching impacts of a diminishing snowpack on the American West—not only from ecological and economic perspectives, but also in regard to emotional and psychological health, as she realizes how deeply her personal relationships are tied to the snow–covered mountains of Utah's Wasatch range.
