Rosa Riezler (1914-1990) is the most successful female racer in the history of Ski-Club Arlberg in Stuben. Before and after the Second World War, she won numerous races at a national level, including the prestigious Madlochrennen in Lech. However, she was denied recognition on an international level. After participating in a few more ski races in 1946, she ended her career. She then started working as a ski instructor in Arlberg – and was also a pioneer in this field.
