Sharon Schmidt/Special to the Daily Campbell Sullivan loved ski racing and cows and was beloved by so many for her courageous battle against a rare form of cancer and for her advocacy. The Vail Ski & Snowboard Academy alumnae and Ski and Snowboard Club Vail competitor died Monday, at 19, after a four year battle with CIC-DUX4 sarcoma. On Wednesday, at Golden Peak in Vail, where Sullivan had trained and raced for so many years, fellow competitors, coaches, friends and family gathered after an FIS women’s giant slalom to complete a ski-down to celebrate Sullivan’s life. Campbell’s mother, Gibby, wore a cow costume, along with a number of others. Gold is the international color for childhoood cancers, and every skier carried a yellow rose or a sunflower down the mountain before tossing them in the air at the finish area.
