From the Organizer

Hop in the saddle—or lace up your sneaks—and tour the Salish Mountains. The Koocanusa Scramble is a one-of-a-kind day-long Montana event featuring a gravel ride (with 4 options), as well as a 5-mile family walk or ride option.

Each course comes complete with incredible views of the Salish Mountains, the Canadian Rockies and Lake Koocanusa, and more. It’s also an opportunity to challenge yourself, find adventure, and have a ton of fun.  This event is fully stocked and supported with aid stations, medical personnel, and, quite possibly, cupcakes.
