About the Event

Sunlight Mountain  and Cripple Creek Backcountry are teaming up again to bring the Moonlight Race Series back for the 2025/26 season! We couldn't be more excited to to bring the uphill community together for 4 nights of type A fun! 

Racers will have the option each night to race on a long or short course with multiple fast accents and downhills. The two courses will be the same for all four races(snow willing) so participants can see their progression in fitness, skinning, skiing and transitions throughout the season. Come out to push your own best time or just move casually with friends.

We all know that we try a little harder when that bib is strapped on so come out and get your suffer fun on! There will be schwag, beers and hot chocolate waiting for you at the finish line!

All racers are required to have a headlamp and a helmet.

Remember to stay on our designated uphill routes while training. 

Racer check in will be between 5:15pm and 5:45pm in front of the main lodge(times will shift by 30 min for the last 2 races).

Check out the race map under "Race Info". Yellow is up and red is down. The short course will be the first accent and the first decent all the way to the bottom.
