Meet Jeniece Pettitt, Plum Vail's Senior Producer/Editor! Jeniece has clocked some serious time in Vail (and in Colorado in general) and shares with us some of her Valley favorites. Vail's best kept secret, however? She's not letting on...

How long have you lived in the Eagle Valley (and where did you live before)?

3 1/2 years. I went to college in Boulder and I am originally from Michigan.

Ski or Snowboard? And what gear are you using?

I ski and snowboard, but I definitely prefer skiing. I ski on Stockli Rotors, the best skis in the world!

What's your favorite run on Vail? Beaver Creek?

Vail: Montane Glade.

Beaver Creek: Rose Bowl

Vail has got 8 Back Bowls. Which is the best?

Siberia

Favorite Valley restaurants (comfort food, fine dining, brunch)?

Tough question since there are so many great options, but some of my favorites are Terra Bistro, Rick and Kelly's, Moe's BBQ and Westside Cafe.

Best place to grab a beer/cocktail?

The George

Best kept secret in Vail?

Will remain a secret. : )

What do you love most about the Winter Season?

Skiing through the trees in deep, glorious pow pow.

What do you look forward to the most this Summer?

Concerts at the Ford Amphitheater- especially Bravo! shows and the Vail International Dance Festival.

Everyone says "I came to Vail for the winters, BUT I stayed in Vail for the summers!" True?

Nope! Nothing beats a winter in Vail.

What's your favorite event on the Vail Calendar?

The Vail Film Festival

You're stranded on an island with two Vailistas. Who would they be?

Please no islands! I will just stay in the mountains to make sure this doesn't happen.

Favorite book/album/movie?

This frequently changes for me but right now it is Eat, Pray, Love by Elizabeth Gilbert, Paul Simon's Rhythm of the Saints and my favorite movie at the moment is Slumdog Millionaire.

Who's your celebrity BFF?

Best friend forever? Is that what that stands for? Eh. I'm not a celebrity person.

And perhaps the most important question of all...Pick a Superpower: Flight or Invisibility? Why?

Flight. I have dreamt about being able to fly up to all of the mountain tops with my skis on so I can ski down fresh fields of powder on a daily basis. : )

Thanks Jeniece!
