Audrie Pelosi, a cornerstone of the local climbing, cycling, and snowboarding scene, passed away at Devil's Lake State Park on May 30th, 2026. She was such a bright light in this world and brought so much joy to everyone she interacted with.

Audrie moved to Baraboo when she met my friend and coworker Jimmy, who I'm pretty sure was absolutely floored when he found out someone like her existed. They met at a snowboarding event and got married at Mount Bohemia shortly after. Everyone who knows them knows that they were made for each other - I have never met a more rad couple.

In my last conversation with Audrie, she joked about selling her handmade bike chain link earrings to anyone who wanted them for "free.99". It was such a simple statement made in passing, but it perfectly encapsulated who she was as a person. Even when she didn't have much, she would give things away freely without hesitation, whether that was earrings, a smile, a laugh, a quick bike tune up, or a belay.

Please consider giving to Jimmy and her family to help cover any costs they may incur during her burial and service. If you knew her, share your favorite story of her below so that we can remember her together ❤️
