Bring the whole family for the weekend. For those of you not racing you can't miss Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park.

Explore stunning caverns and formations... in Colorado's largest showcave. Fly down the mountain on Colorado's only alpine coaster. And you better hang on to your seat in Colorado's only 4D Ride Theater. Fly through the air over scenic Glenwood Canyon, high above Glenwood Springs in our Giant Swing.

Free Concert after the race. Bring a can of food for a free entry to Glewood Caverns Music on the Mountain to see The Missing Link Band. Click for more details.
