WE LOVE THE WEST. WE JUST WANTED A BETTER VIEW.
Skijoring has always been one hell of a spectacle. There is nothing better than a galloping horse, a skier flying across the snow, and a crowd that is all in on the action.
High Plains brings together the absolute best competitors in the sport and pairs them with world-class hospitality. It’s the raw, high-adrenaline edge of the West, executed with an eye for detail, comfort, and style.

Creating a world-class skijoring event isn’t something you throw together in a weekend. It requires elite horsemanship, fearless and experienced skiers, meticulous course design, ironclad operations, and a genuine understanding of how to host an exceptional guest experience.
Our team brings every single one of those pieces together.
Managed by Outlaw Cowgirl Co.—an organization dedicated to producing top-tier equine events, clinics, and elevated guest experiences—we know what it takes to execute at the highest level. As the team behind large-scale productions like Bridger Brewskis & Spurs, we have a proven track record of bringing together top-tier competitors, passionate spectators, premier sponsors, and luxury hospitality partners for an unforgettable weekend on the snow.
With High Plains, we’re taking everything we’ve learned and raising the bar even higher.
