SNOWDOWN SEARCH FOR THE SILVER BULLET

Hosted by A & L Coors & Four Corners Broadcasting

Now in its 26th year, this event challenges all players in the game of SNOWDOWN to find the “Silver Bullet”! Somewhere out there among the cliffs and canyons, mountains and meadows of La Plata County, the “reading railroad”, “marvin gardens”or “the boardwalk”  the Silver Bullet will be hidden. Find the Silver Bullet before anyone else and win $250 cash, glory and other wonderful prizes! How it works – each day starting Monday January 27th, 2025 clues will be released on RADIO 101.3 & KRSJ 100.5 radio stations that will help you in your search. You must be creative and smart in your solution of these clues to find the Silver Bullet and claim your veritable plethora of prizes. Remember there is no second place in this contest…there is only one Silver Bullet! There’s plenty of “code names” but it's up to you to decipher where the bullet is.  This is the ultimate SNOWDOWN game! Registration is not required but you must be 21+ to win.
