From NY to Colorado to now Utah, she has spent over a decade chasing her dreams. Shaun&rsquo;s passion for skiing is what has been the engine behind her actions. First as a big mountain competitive skier, then sponsored pro, to now avalanche educator, guide, and business owner. It is even how she and her husband, Weston D met. Now living in Park City with their two dogs and daughter, Shaun continues to pursue her dreams whether as a big mountain skier, web series co-creator, AIARE avalanche instructor, backcountry and cat ski guide or owner of a wellness guiding company, Inspired Summit Adventures. She began this journey with nothing more than a dream of becoming a professional skier not sure where it would lead, but today finds herself humbly sitting amongst many of her heroes living the dream.&nbsp;<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"x-section e572-e15 mfw-0\"><div class=\"x-container marginless-columns e572-e16 mfw-1\"><div class=\"x-column x-sm x-1-1 e572-e17 mfw-2\"><hr class=\"x-line e572-e18 mfw-c\"><\/hr><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"cs-content x-global-block x-global-block-570 e570-e0\"><div class=\"x-section e570-e1 mfu-0\"><div class=\"x-container marginless-columns e570-e2 mfu-1\"><div class=\"x-column x-sm x-1-4 e570-e3 mfu-2 mfu-3\"><span class=\"x-image e570-e4 mfu-4\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Weston_Deutschlander_300.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" alt=\"Image\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/span><\/div><div class=\"x-column x-sm x-3-4 e570-e5 mfu-2\"><div class=\"x-text x-content e570-e6 mfu-5 mfu-6 mfu-7\"><p>Weston Deutschlander<\/p><\/div><div class=\"x-text x-content e570-e7 mfu-5 mfu-6 mfu-8 mfu-9\"><p><strong>Location:<\/strong> Park City, UT<\/p><\/div><div class=\"x-text x-content e570-e8 mfu-5 mfu-6 mfu-8 mfu-9\"><p><strong>Top Gear Picks:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.voile.com\/voile-v8-skis.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">V8 193cm<\/a> \/&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.voile.com\/voile-supercharger-skis.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">SuperCharger 185cm<\/a><\/p><\/div><hr class=\"x-line e570-e9 mfu-b\"><\/hr><div class=\"x-text x-content e570-e10 mfu-5 mfu-6 mfu-8 mfu-9\"><p><strong>Website:&nbsp;<\/strong>&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.InspiredSummit.com\" target=\"blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.InspiredSummit.com<\/a><\/p><\/div><div class=\"x-text x-content e570-e11 mfu-5 mfu-6 mfu-8 mfu-9\"><p><strong>Instagram:<\/strong> <a  target=\"blank\" href=\"https:\/\/instagram.com\/thewestond\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@thewestond<\/a>&nbsp;\/&nbsp;<a  target=\"blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/inspiredsummitadventures\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@inspiredsummitadventures<\/a><\/p><\/div><div class=\"x-text x-content e570-e12 mfu-5 mfu-6 mfu-8 mfu-9\"><p><strong>Facebook Business Page:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/InspiredSummitAdventures\/\" target=\"blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Inspired Summit Adventures<\/a><\/p><\/div><hr class=\"x-line e570-e13 mfu-c\"><\/hr><div class=\"x-text x-content e570-e14 mfu-5 mfu-8 mfu-a\"><p>Weston is one of the smarter New Yorker's and fled the state as soon as he could.
