PLATTE CANYON HIGH SCHOOL and Middle School
HOME OF THE HUSKIES - Leading the Pack
HUSKY CROSS COUNTRY INVITATIONAL
Friday, August 28, 2026
Coaches and ADs,
Platte Canyon High School will again be hosting the Husky Invite at Tomahawk Ranch, Girl Scout Camp of the Rockies. The meet will feature an open boys, girls High School Races and an open boys and girls middle school races. Tomahawk Ranch is located in Bailey, CO off of Hwy 285, approximately 45 minutes west of Denver.
For Front Range Schools, this meet is a perfect chance to have a fun mountain adventure before the more competitive races in September and October. For Mountain schools this is a great chance to race with your neighbors.
While all schools and clubs are welcome, the meet is ideal for smaller 3A, 2A and 1A High Schools and Middle Schools. Smaller schools with less than seven runners can pay $20 per athlete
Much like the State meet, the races will start outside the horse pavilion and end inside the pavilion. The course is mostly two track roads with some trails with only moderate elevation gains. This year we will be using Timberline Events as our timing service for rapid and accurate results.
Hope to see you there,
Mike Demko
Cross Country Coach, Platte Canyon High School
