Parachute’s 2019 Rockmageddon provided a fun-filled weekend for Western Garfield County locals and visitors with food, music, activities and competitions for all ages. The event’s third edition was also an opportunity for local off-road motorsports enthusiasts to test their skills behind the wheel.

Vehicles in different categories such as ProMud, MudMod, ProStock, SuperStock, PowderPuff, and StreetLegal battled it out in the mud for $5,000 in prizes.
