Josef Avena

Hailing from an Eastern Washington farm, Josef Avena stumbled into Montana blind when he transferred to Montana State University in 2022. Thinking he had seen tough winters, Josef was served a slice of humble pie when he woke up to minus-35 in his first winter. A proud Bobcat graduate, he now spends his weekends snowboarding at Bridger and fishing the Gallatin. Or at least trying to.
