Maybe axe-throwing is a bit more your beat.
It’s one of several upcoming events in the Bud Light Mountain Games, a series of free competitions designed to add a bit of fun, little-to-no-experience-necessary programming to the spring skiing season, said Aspen Skiing Co. Director of Event Development Deric Gunshor.
Programming begins with the “Beers and Gears” fat tire banked slalom race on Fanny Hill on Friday.
All it takes is some gumption to enter. Participants should bring their own bikes if they can, as there will be a very limited supply available at the race, according to Gunshor.
Also on deck this weekend: a “Shoot and Scoot” ski mountaineering-style biathlon that combines skiing and paintball guns on Assay Hill on Sunday.
