About the Event

Join us this summer as we venture into the rugged Upper Peninsula, specifically the historic Copper Harbor trails, for an exhilarating weekend of competitive racing. The race spans two days, offering both cross-country (XC) and downhill (DH) events on Saturday, August 30th.
On Sunday, August 31st, participants will have the opportunity to test their skills on our challenging technical trails, featuring short track and dual slalom races. These courses are renowned for their intricate twists and turns through dense forests and along scenic coastal paths, providing a unique runner experience that is both demanding and rewarding.
Copper Harbor itself offers breathtaking views of Lake Superior's vast expanse, making the race not just about competition but also about enjoying nature’s beauty. The trails wind through lush greenery and past crystal-clear streams, creating an atmosphere where athletes can push their limits while surrounded by pristine wilderness.
