Ariel Tweto is passionate about taking chances and trying new things in the outdoors -- and sharing her experiences with others. Ariel’s Inupiaq Inuit, born and raised in Unalakleet, Alaska. She’s a pilot, a TV personality, and the founder of the nonprofit Popping Bubbles. 

Ariel’s first time at the Mountain Games gave her the opportunity to compete in her very first e-bike race. That’s one of the cool things about the Mountain Games: people of all experience levels compete together for the sake of community and having fun out there. She and Gabaccia Moreno met up at the Mountain Games to talk about how it went, the new friends she’s made in Vail, and her best advice for listeners looking to embrace nature in their lives.
