Stroll for Joel

4th Annual Stroll for Joel!Come join us for a leisurely skin-up at Sunlight Mountain Resort to remember local legend Joel Shute and all those we've lost doing what they loved: ADVENTURING! Joel Shute lost his life during an avalanche in Marble on March 17, 2023, and if you have lived in Colorado long enough, you also probably know someone who passed in the great outdoors. This event is to honor their legacy. Everyone is welcome to join, we have all lost someone, and you will be in good company, as this is an end-of-season celebration of life!

Todd's Tavern will be open with Live Music, and a COSTUME CONTEST! Be there at 9:30 AM with a target skin-up start time around 10 am! Last one up gets a prize!

Suggested $20 Donation to support the Colorado Avalanche Information Center (CAIC), West Elks Search & Rescue, and Sunlight Ski Patrol. This event is sponsored by Sunlight Mountain Resort, Cripple Creek Backcountry, Holy Cross Engineering, Friends of CAIC, and many others.
