Utah Skijoring is an action-packed competition where a horse and rider pull a skier at a fast pace through a course that includes gates, jumps and rings.

The sport combines Utah's signature ski heritage with its cowboy roots.

Competitors race for cash and prizes based on the fastest times.

It's a blast for spectators and is a great reason to get outside and take advantage of Utah winter, socialize and have some fun while supporting local athletes.

It's happening in beautiful Heber Valley from Thursday, February 20 to Saturday, February 22.

While you're there, there are other fun winter activities to make it a great weekend.
