In episode 5 of Elena Hight’s Absinthe Microdose, Jeremy Jones gives high praise to the Tahoe native, saying, “She’s become one of my favorite people to do these tougher expeditions where success is a maybe.” That’s the most succinct way to say that Elena not only doesn’t back down from a challenge, she embraces it, fueled by new experiences, challenging terrain, and pushing herself and her snowboarding. In episode 5 of this series, we watch as Elena steps out further into the backcountry, a natural in big mountain terrain and always pushing herself further.
