After 10 years of racing in Snowmass Village, Ragnar Trail Colorado has wrapped up its tenure.

The Ragnar race is a group relay where competitors on a team each run one set of three loops over a period of 24 hours, with the loops split into three difficulties. Competitors are based out of Snowmass Town Park, where tent cities are constructed for competitors to sleep and rest between runs.

This past weekend’s race was the final one for Snowmass as the race has “run its course” in the Roaring Fork Valley, according to Sara Stookey Sanchez, the public relations manager for the town of Snowmass. The town is now looking into new events to replace Ragnar, although Stookey Sanchez confirmed the town is not yet sure what that will look like.
