Spokane is Lumberjill country! Ferris High School graduate and current top Lumberjill in the world, Erin LaVoie has been dominating the sport of wood chopping for decades. The 2024 season proved that she has taken her dominance to new heights.
The success is anything but overnight, however. “I've sort of just tailored my life for the last 20 years of this is how I think I can win, and this is how I'm gonna set myself up to win,” said LaVoie.
When LaVoie began her Lumberjill career over 20 years ago, the niche sport had yet to grow into an international extreme sport. LaVoie said when she started, “It was me and one other girl that I competed against in competition, and then the rest we were always against the guys. So we went from two women that I saw the weekends we competed to now you have to qualify for competitions.”
The sport has exploded from those early days, now including 14 countries and annual international competitions are held each year as part of Stihl Timber Sports.
