Ellen Miller is hosting an Uphill Ski/Hike Meetup geared for those 50+! Men and women welcome, and don't worry, we won't be checking ID's for your age 😉Registration is required. See Tickets to register.
Ellen and GRGA Ambassadors volunteer to host these events to create awareness and funds for Gore Range Gravity Alliance, a local non-profit organization whose mission it is to bring women together to grow in their pursuit of outdoor adventure. Learn more at https://www.gorerangegravityalliance.com/.
Meet at the west end of the Elk Lot Trailhead at 5:15pm. Please note that the Elk Lot is free after 3pm.
We will walk up the Beaver Cr Recreational Path to the base of the Landing to meet at 5:30pm (please note that the sidewalk can be icy). Then, we will put our skis on and depart at the Landing by 5:40pm.
We'll skin for about an hour. The route will be Leav the Beav up to The Ritz (Buffalo's) for Alpine Social Hour before skiing back down. For the go-getters, you can also skin/hike up past The Ritz up Sawbuck trail and then head down the The Ritz for the social hour.
All abilities and fitness levels are welcome. We move in groups so no one is left behind and attendees can move at their own pace together. For us the goal of these meetups is to offer opportunities for folks to get together, nourish current friendships or make new ones, and get outside. We just ask that you try to have an understanding on your gear as our ambassadors are not pros.
Reminder: This is not a professionally guided event, our Ambassadors will be leading the route and keeping groups together, but skiing and riding are done so at your own risk and all participants must have a signed the GRGA Waiver: https://www.waiverfile.com/b/GoreRangeGravityAlliance/Waiver.aspx?fbclid=IwY2xjawQHIOJleHRuA2FlbQIxMABicmlkETIwMVQ4UktyRVloa1lJTktxc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQQMjIyMDM5MTc4ODIwMDg5MgABHndpnbV3OqqgQPpLoiIIZouNK_WCiPVH700_5RnSKiu6fb339_Bo-TOLP5Eo_aem_XMUCCCxiaWg_kZhvMA5-zA.
