COURSE DESIGN In designing our course our main focus is to provide a safe venue for horses, riders, skiers and spectators. We will have a straight track approximately 700' in length. Our track designers work with what mother nature gives us, and typically includes 3 jumps, Leadville style rings, and multiple ski gates. Our hope is to run a crossover track this year with multiple features, but as always we will work with what mother nature gives us. SNOW UPDATE Stay tuned for an update on conditions.
HORSE BOARDING Thanks to our local supporters and ranchers we have onsite horse boarding at the race venue. All boarding facilities have water available, please bring your own feed. Boarding is at no extra cost for participants and reservations are made when registering for the event.
