Black Canyon Triathlon

The Black Canyon Triathlon, hosted by the Montrose Recreation Foundation, welcomes around 200 athletes and families annually. A USAT membership is necessary for participation. The race benefits the Montrose community, funding recreational opportunities and scholarships for sports and activities. Divisions include Youth, Adult, Team, and Family Team, catering to ages ranging from 6 to over 70. The event comprises swimming, biking, and running through the local terrain. Community groups volunteering receive donations, and participants are encouraged to appreciate the event sponsors. An awards ceremony recognizes top finishers across various age and team categories.
