Rider Ali Briggs and skier Jerry Kissell navigate the race course during the 73rd annual Leadville Ski Joring weekend competition on March 7, 2021 in Leadville, Colorado. Skijoring, which has its origins as a competitive sport in Scandinavia, has been adapted over the years to include a team made up of a rider and skier who must navigate jumps, slalom gates, and the spearing of rings for points. In the spirit of the Wild West, and despite the coronavirus pandemic, Leadville continued the annual tradition by relocating the race course from the city center, and not allowing spectators.
