Lots of great happenings on the Mesa this week, including races, adult lessons, and Skis, Not Skirts.
Saturday, Dec 6: Winterstart ski races at Skyway
Be part of Colorado's first race of the season!

12:30pm 5km freestyle race
Registration is race day only at the Skyway trailhead. Ski one or ski them both for the same price, $10 for GMNC members, $15 for others. Grand Mesa racing is focussed on citizen racing.
