Fire Update

Due to the ongoing impact of the Cottonwood Fire on Beaver, Eagle Point, local emergency resources, and the surrounding community, Crusher in the Tushar will not take place as planned this year.

This was an incredibly difficult decision, but given the current situation and the safety considerations for athletes, volunteers, staff, partners, and the local community, we are confident it is the right one.

Registered athletes have been emailed directly with available options.

Our thoughts are with the Beaver community, Eagle Point, first responders, local officials, and everyone affected by the Cottonwood Fire.
