Eileen Shiffrin has long been a constant force in Mikaela Shiffrin’s life, serving not just as a parent but also as a coach, supporter, confidant and close friend. Her influence has shaped every stage of Mikaela’s journey, which is why her recent absence was felt so strongly.
In Avon, Colorado, Mikaela Shiffrin moved through a corridor at the Westin Riverfront Resort and Spa, passing a display celebrating her remarkable career. The poster highlights her World Cup overall Alpine titles from 2017, 2018, 2019, 2022 and 2023, proudly labeling the hotel as the “Home of a Resident Gold Medalist.” Living nearby in Edwards, Shiffrin regularly trains at the hotel’s gym.
The display is framed by two striking images: one captures Shiffrin beaming as she holds a crystal globe awarded for her overall championships, while the other shows her in full racing form, crouched low on her skis as she slices through a slalom gate visual reminders of both her success and the journey behind it.
