DURANGO — Organizers expect the popular skijoring race in Silverton to return in January.
The the race where through a series of gates and jumps was canceled this year after three people were injured by a horse at the February 2017 event.
A low-flying drone spooked a horse that darted into a crowd, trampling people.
Event organizer Pete Maisel says all insurance issues resulting from the 2017 race have been resolved. The event is scheduled to return Jan. 11-13.
The event typically brings 3,000 to 4,000 people to the small town about 50 miles (80 kilometers) north of Durango.
Maisel says the event serves as a major economic boost for the community in the middle of winter.
