Living Journeys 2026 Summit Hike
The Living Journeys Summit Hike takes place on July 25, 2026 at Crested Butte Mountain Resort in Crested Butte, Colorado. It is the 27th annual occurrence of this community event focused on supporting people facing cancer and honoring family and friends who have died.
The event offers multiple route options through the West Elk Mountains. Distances include:
- 9.9-mile trek from the base
- 2-mile chairlift-assisted hike to the summit
Registration opens May 27, 2026 and closes July 1, 2026. Registered participants receive lunch, a goodie bag, and a lift ticket. Passholders are asked to bring their Epic Pass at check-in to expedite registration and help preserve limited day-of tickets for non-passholders.
Proceeds support local services related to cancer, including emotional counseling and financial assistance for individuals and families in the community. The description of the route and provided items indicates options for different participation styles, from the full base-to-summit hike to a shorter summit access via chairlift, with a communal lunch included.
