Pond Skim
April 2, 2022 @ 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm
$15
The end of ski season is just another great excuse to celebrate, dress up in silly costumes and have wacky events, like the Pond Skim, where competitors attempt to skim across a man-made pond with their skis and snowboards. Join in our Closing Weekend fun and go out with a splash!
Gunnison Valley is also host to several beloved annual events. A classic winter event is The Alley Loop, a Nordic ski race that doubles as a costume contest. In fall, Mt. Crested Butte hosts the famous Chili and Beer Festival. Every summer in Gunnison, a crowd gathers to watch America’s fourth-oldest rodeo, Cattlemen’s Days. There are also festivals in Crested Butte that celebrate local art, music, wildflowers, and more. Attending an annual event is a good way to connect with the culture of the Gunnison Valley. You might even create a new tradition for you and your family and friends!
