PHOTOS: Copper Cup ski race training at Copper Mountain
Copper Mountain Resort in Summit County, Colorado is hosting the 2025 Stifel Copper Cup, one of only two stops in the United States (both in Colorado) during the 2026 FIS Alpine Skiing World Cup this season.
Several nation’s men’s and women’s teams, including top skiers on the U.S. Ski Team, participated in multiple training days during the third week of November on the lower section of the Super-G course.
From Colorado racers River Radamus and Kyle Negomir to internationally-known superstars like Aleksander Kilde and Lindsey Vonn, Copper Mountain is ready to host the best of the best during the Thanksgiving week on the slopes in the East Village.
