A team competes in skijoring in Heber City on Jan. 16, 2026.

Professional skijoring will return to the Wasatch Back this winter with high-speed competition at a new location.

The 2027 Frontier Tour will stop in Utah twice along with new events in Denver, Colorado, and Lake Tahoe, Nevada.

Skijoring pairs a horse and rider with a skier or snowboarder racing behind them through a snow-packed course of gates, jumps, rings and obstacles.

The tour kicks off in mid-January in Montana before visiting Idaho. Skiers and riders will travel to Salt Lake City Feb. 6 for the Winter Roundup and return Feb. 26-28 for competition at Soldier Hollow Nordic Center.

Competitors can register online.

Tickets to watch the Midway competition are now on sale. The Salt Lake event is free.
