Founder of one of the world’s singular backcountry experiences, McCormack authors The Breck Epic, a mustache-twirling medley of singletrack, suffering, and swear jars. A loving nod to the width, breadth and magnificence of Summit County, CO’s high-alpine trail network, Epic’s six sprawling, soulful stages deliver lessons of sustainability and stewardship, and also a deliberately cautionary tale about the dangers of loving something to death. www.breckepic.com
