The 16th Annual GORE-TEX® Elk Mountains Grand Traverse will be held on Friday March 29, 2013. Mark your calendars!
The Grand Traverse is an extraordinary 40-mile backcountry ski race

the start is usually at midnight from Crested Butte, often in sub-zero
temperatures; the racers traverse Colorado’s spectacular Elk Mountains.
NOTE: for 2012 the start will be 11:00PM at Crested Butte Mountain
Resort.
The course is based on the mail routes of the 1880's, connecting the two towns.

To maintain safety in the backcountry, racers compete in teams of two and are required to carry mandatory gear. Held annually since 1998, it’s earned a reputation as a true test of toughness for elite local, national and international athletes.
