Pro-Level Skijoring Event Coming to Bozeman This Winter

What do you get when you combine horseback riding and skis? You get skijoring, one of Montana’s classic winter pastimes, where horses and riders pull skiers through gates, jumps, and rings at impressive speed.

This January, a new skijoring competition is coming to Bozeman, and it is shaping up to be a next-level skijoring competition. 

The Gallatin Skijor Invitational is one of the stops on the inaugural PRO Skijor Frontier Tour, a new multi-state series that features higher-level competition and cash prizes.

This isn’t a casual exhibition or a single-day race. This event is a multi-day competition with a pro-division and higher stakes for competitors. Riders and skiers will travel from across the region to compete, and man, will it be fun to watch!
