The Cross Mountain Crusher Gravel Grind

The 2024 Cross Mountain Crusher crushes on Saturday, October 5th.

This event is for those who wish to challenge their physical abilities to the maximum while enjoying beautiful back country roads in the Catskill Mountains.

This year, the Crusher comes in 3 sizes for a custom fit:

All Crusher options have feed station support, and mechanical & vehicular support as needed. Many of the gravel roads are seasonal roads, so rough climbing and descending should be expected.
