FESTIVAL

February 1-4, 2023

One of the crown jewels of the Gem State is the Zions Bank Boulder Mountain Tour, which wends its way through the pristine Sawtooth National Recreation Area north of Ketchum. Now celebrating its 50th anniversary, the BMT is one of the longest-running and most respected cross-country ski races in North America.

Leading off the Sun Valley Nordic Festival is the NordicTown USA Sprints, followed by the Boulder Mountain Tour Expo featuring industry insiders, sponsors, goods and bib bag pickup. 1,000 skiers will toe the line for the in-person Boulder Mountain Tour and celebrate their accomplishment at an awards party that evening at Ketchum Town Square.

On Saturday, February 4, the Full Boulder begins outside of historic Galena Lodge in spectacular Senate Meadows. The gently rolling terrain of the 34-kilometer course is friendly to skiers of all ages and abilities. For families wanting to enjoy the course with small children or those new to the sport, the 15-kilometer Charley Course Half Boulder is an excellent option. Beginning at Baker Creek, the Half starts and finishes on the Full Boulder course. Supported by veteran race organizers and experienced volunteers, the BMT is an experience that will be enjoyed by one and all and long remembered.

Virtual BMT race participants can ski 15 or 30 kilometers on a course of their choice.
