The Grand Traverse is the most time-honored point-to-point ski race in North America.
The 26th anniversary of this singular test of endurance across 40 miles of arduous alpine terrain has earned the race its status as a proving ground for endurance ski athletes.
With the inception of GT Mountain Run & Bike events in 2015, the Grand Traverse Triple Crown has rapidly matured into a preeminent multi-sport challenge, capturing the imaginations of mountain athletes across the nation.
Grand Traverse Ski : This is a minimally supported backcountry event
Rugged backcountry conditions and severe weather may be present along any part of the course. Hazards may include but are not limited to - rapid snow accumulation, avalanche, poor visibility, high winds, extreme temperatures, swift creek crossings, lightning, and/or rock fall. Course officials cannot monitor, or guarantee complete safety throughout the entirety of the course. Participants must be skilled in making their own assessment of conditions, and have sufficient gear and knowledge of how to manage potentially life-threatening circumstances. All racers proceed at their own risk.

Important Updates:
Ski teammates will each register separately.
To secure a TEAM registration, only ONE teammate needs to register as Team Captain.
Once Ski registration is confirmed, your chosen teammate will have until January 31st to complete their portion of the registration. Instructions for enrolling your teammate will be sent in a confirmation email.
If you do not have a teammate by January 31st, you will need to cancel your bib or request. We are NOT honoring transfers this year. We highly recommend registering for Race Roster's Enhanced Refund Protection program for race cancellations.
We will no longer be offering transfers for Grand Traverse races. If you register and cannot race, you have a few options. We will offer a 50% refund if you drop before January 31, 2024. We will operate a traditional waitlist through Race Roster this year to fill spots as they open up.
We strongly recommend purchasing Race Roster's Enhanced Refund Protection Program (powered by Protecht) when registering. Refund protection covers your registration purchase in the event that you cannot attend the event due to unforeseen circumstances (injury, illness, loss of a job, etc.).
