Epic Winter

LOCAL LUMINARY Lila Lapanja a winter that wows

Lila Lapanja, an Incline Village native, was two years old the first time her parents strapped on skis. She excelled at the sport and began racing competitively for the Diamond Peak team at the age of seven. In doing so, she solidified her commitment to Alpine Ski Racing and is now charging forward with a clear goal in mind: The 2022 Winter Olympics. Lila embodies grit and grace, and as she continues to gain momentum in the ski racing world, she reminds us to embrace our outdoor passions and the limitless opportunities there are to explore.
