Dropping a whopping 480 feet per mile, Homestake Creek is a paddling gem that was once known only to Vail Valley locals. Then, in 2002, local weatherman, shuttle driver and pro kayaker extraordinaire Ken "Hobie" Hoeve hosted a successful grassroots race on the creek with no more than a keg of beer waiting at the finish line.
In 2003, the Mountain Games took Homestake Creek nationwide as some of the world's best paddlers hucked their meat down drops like "Leap of Faith" and "Piece of S**t." Race rules are simple - the fastest time to the finish line of the ¼ mile creek wins.
