Today we went over to Leadville, which is about 30 miles from us over Fremont Pass. They were having their annual ski-joring contests this weekend. If you are unsure of what ski-joring is…just check out my pictures. Basically, skiers hold on to a rope and ski behind a sprinting horse, while attempting to go over huge jumps and catch rings along the way. I. Was. In. Awe. It was so cool. There really couldn’t be a more fitting event in Colorado. Horses, cowboys and cowgirls, and skiing.
This volunteer was retrieving a lost cowboy hat…
Another beautiful Colorado day. 50 degrees, blue skies and ski-joring.
