Poster for the 2013 CMC Leadville Cloud City Rail JamCMC Leadville’s Rail Jam is just around the corner!

The 9th annual CMC Leadville Cloud City Rail Jam is slated to take place on March 23, 2013. The entire event is put on by Colorado Mountain College’s Ski Area Operations program students, 95 percent of whom land jobs at ski areas after graduation. Students in the snowmaking class make the snow; students in the grooming class sculpt it into perfect corduroy and jumps; and students in the event management class promote and run the event.

Rail Jam events kick off at 12 PM, with open practice from 10-11:30 AM.  You can watch men’s and women’s snowboarding and enjoy great music and food on the sidelines. A great way to spend a day in Leadville!
