Whitefish skier Maggie Voisin, 15, stayed on her path toward the Olympics with a fourth-place finish in womens slopestyle at the season’s second qualifying event last weekend at the U.S. Grand Prix at Copper Mountain, Colo.

The fourth-place finish followed her third-place a week ago. She has taken the top spot in qualifiers each of the first two weeks of Olympic qualifying and is currently the top-ranked American woman in slopestyle.

She can officially qualify for the upcoming Winter Games in Sochi, Russia with another top-three finish in one of the three remaining events. The next qualifier is at Northstar, Calif., on Jan. 6-12.
