In addition to the athletic events, the GoPro Mountain Games will include a mountain photography competition, adventure film school, film festival, interactive exhibition and demo area, nightly free concerts, and mountain lifestyle parties.

 

Were looking forward to joining the athletes and spectators at the GoPro Mountain Games this summer, said Juli Warner, marketing communications manager for LED Lenser. Well be interacting with attendees at GearTown with both our LED Lenser and Leatherman brands, and involved with the music concerts at night, handing out all kinds of cool stuff so concertgoers can enjoy the night time festivities. This is a great partnership and were excited to be supporting the athletes at the Games.
