Gothic Mountain Tour
Crested Butte, United States • 15 Feb 2026
The Gothic Mountain Tour, hosted by Crested Butte Nordic in Colorado, is a challenging and scenic cross-country ski race circling Gothic Mountain. It offers two race distances: a competitive 23.5-mile course starting behind Crested Butte Community School, and a 17.85-mile recreational course beginning at the Snodgrass Trailhead in Mt. Crested Butte.
Both routes conclude at the Magic Meadows Yurt on the CB Nordic trail system. The event features minimal aid stations, mandatory avalanche rescue and personal protection gear, and a unique "Top-of-the-World" premium prize. Limited to 200 participants, the race emphasizes backcountry safety and community spirit, serving as a fundraiser for the non-profit Crested Butte Nordic.
