RegisterNEW THIS YEAR: Vertical on Friday night, Short and Long on Saturday morning!
Grab your touring set up (alpine, tele, or splitboard) and give it a go on one of three courses designed to be fun and challenging for all abilities.
New to uphill travel? Keep it simple with the Vertical course -a straight shot up Lazy M where only the ascent is timed. The Vertical Course features 1,900ft of elevation gain over 3.5 miles.
Want to try your hand at skimo? Take on the Short Course -an intro course with skinning and boot packing ascents and fun descents. The Short Course features about 2,200ft of elevation gain over 4.25 miles. You'll be timed from start to finish.
Ready for the challenge? Take on the Long Course and find yourself with multiple skinning and boot packing ascents and challenging descents as you travel around some of the best terrain on Red Lodge Mountain. The Long Course features approximately 4,550ft of elevation gain over 6.5 miles. You'll be timed from start to finish.
We're proud to be part of the 2025 Big Sky Skimo Cup! See how you stack up against other participants. All registered participants will be automatically entered into the Big Sky Skimo Cup.
BONUS: If you don't already have a season pass, a full day lift ticket is included in registration for the SHORT AND LONG COURSE ONLY so you can ride the lifts all day after the race!
