The Enduro

The Arpapahoe Basin Enduro is being held Wednesday, April 13. Proceeds from the event will go to the Leif Borgeson Memorial Fund. The Enduro is a 10 hour endurance event held on Pali Lift. Teams of 2 people ski 20 designated routes on the North Side from 7 AM until 5 PM. While a few teams are highly competitive, skiing nearly 70 runs, other teams are more relaxed enjoying a full day of skiing with friends. This year following the event there will be an apres ski party, dinner party, and silent auction from 5:30 to 8:30 in the A-Frame. With this year's donation recipient being so close to us all, we have had tremendous interest in participation. While we are actively trying to squeeze more people in, we do have limits to space and may not be able to quite fit everybody in the Enduro itself. For all those interested in being involved or contributing, there will be ample opportunities to donate at the evening party. This a very special event put together with the help and positive energy from the participants, sponsors, lift operators, lift mechanics, ski patrollers, food and beverage staff, events/marketing group, and many others. Please join us for a great day and help support the Leif Borgeson Memorial Fund.
