Steep n’ Deep XC showcases a new age of mountain bike racing featuring a 35km cross country style course with 4 unique timed stages around the Resort that will count towards riders overall time. Riders will experience the many phases of mountain biking from hootin’ & hollerin’ on burly descents to feeling the burn up the steep climbs and socializing with your pals during the transfers. In the spirit of downcountry there will be more descending than climbing throughout the 4 timed stages, but beware, each descent will be hard earned.

More than just a bike race. Steep n’ Deep XC offers a weekend of festivities at Fernie Alpine Resort starting with Friday Evening’s Rider Social and Package Pickup at Legends Mountain Eatery, Saturday’s Race Start from the Resort Plaza following up with Finish Line Vibes back at the Plaza with plenty of live entertainment including a Fernie staple, Little Bit Good Band, and a rowdy afterparty at Canada’s most iconic apres bar since 1962, the Griz bar.
