In this episode of ATV-TALK, Leonard Duncan and Val take a closer look at the incident that sparked conversation throughout the GNCC community at this year’s Snowshoe race. Rather than focusing on blame, they explore the history of Snowshoe, the legacy of Blackwater, the culture surrounding Howard’s Hole, and how traditions have shaped one of off-road racing’s most iconic events.

Together, they discuss what happened, separate fact from speculation, and ask an important question: How can GNCC preserve what makes Snowshoe special while continuing to evolve for the future?
