We recently caught up with Toronto Sceptres forward Clair DeGeorge over email to learn about how she's spent her offseason. Here's what we found out.
Where have you spent most of your summer?
I have been all over the place! Started visiting family across the US: Florida, Colorado and New Mexico. In late June and early July I spent vacation in Europe. Then spent the last portion of summer back home in Alaska to visit family and friends. Now I am in Boston for training and a little bit of work!
Did you go on vacation at all?
I went to vacation in Western Europe and visited a few countries, but my main trip was trekking the Tour du Mont Blanc. The hike starts in France and goes through Italy and Switzerland around the beautiful Mont Blanc. I stayed in Refugios, small mountain huts, each night and carried what I needed with me each day. I was on the trail for six days, hiking roughly 65 miles total. My favorite part was the quiet mornings when I got to hike while the sun was rising and none of the animals had been spooked away by people yet. I got very lucky with amazing weather!
