Snow Biking at Grand Targhee Resort
Winter biking is rapidly gaining traction and riders in the Greater Teton Region are a major part of the movement. Grand Targhee Resort recognized this, and became the first ski resort in the United States to embrace and endorse fat bikes onto its nordic trail system.
Building upon momentum from the 2012 event, Grand Targhee celebrates its second Fat Bike Race. With divisions ranging from 15k (1 lap on the nordic track) to 45k (3 laps on the nordic track). Snow bike demos will be available before and after the race.
The Festival will bring hundreds of visitors to Teton Valley, offering exposure and diverse events. For a complete schedule of events, Valley lodging details and information about the festival, visit greatsnowfest.com
