GoPro Mountain Games organizer Tom Boyd, of the Vail Valley Foundation, says this year could redefine what the Mountain Games mean to people seeking outdoor recreation.
Former NFL player Orlando Franklin; former NHL player Brooks Laich; former mixed martial artist Mark Weir; pro skier Chris Benchetler; eight-time world champion runner Joseph Gray; four-time mountain biking world champion Brian Lopes; and star yoga teacher Arielle Shipe are a few of the participants the 2021 GoPro Mountain Games has attracted.
