Whistler Blackcomb Crowns Grete Eliassen Ullr Girl

Whistler Blackcomb’s search for their Ullr Girl ended at the TELUS World Ski & Snowboard’s Playstation Big Air on Saturday April 21 when skier Grete Eliassen was crowned with a Viking helmet befitting a mountain goddess and awarded with a cheque for $25,000. The Minnesota native dominated over a field of 14 skiers and snowboarders in the resort’s girls-only contest based on online votes, a park event, a big mountain event, and an arts and culture presentation.“I’ve never won this much money before and I know how blessed I am to be able to have this opportunity,” says Eliassen. “I’ve decided that I want to give back and donate the entire prize purse to charity.”
