2027 Theme: Revive the Vision

Summit Men's Retreat

Three days. The Colorado Rockies. For men. The Summit is one day. The Summit Men's Retreat is three more. Together, they're the Full Summit Experience.

How It Fits Together

One day opens the door. Three more take you deeper.

One

Summit One-Day

Opens the door. A single day at Red Rocks, open to men and women.

Two

Summit Men's Retreat

Takes it deeper. Three more days in the Colorado mountains, for men who are ready to go further.

Together

Full Summit Experience

The complete week, from Red Rocks to Spring Canyon and back.

You're Carrying Weight

You don't need more information. You need clarity.

The Summit Men's Retreat is a three-day continuation of Summit One-Day, for men ready to go further: CEOs, founders, pastors, and leaders of leaders who know that leadership isn't meant to be carried alone. A smaller group heads into the Colorado mountains to slow down, reflect, and build on what began at Red Rocks.

For those who lead with a kingdom-minded perspective, this time in the mountains is also a chance to reconnect with faith as a source of strength. Whatever you bring, you're welcome here.

Summit One-Day is also followed by the Summit Women's Regroup, a leadership experience for women. It is held at Spring Canyon, with four nights of lodging included. Early Bird pricing runs through October 31, 2026. Learn more about the Women's Regroup →

The Setting

Red Rocks to Spring Canyon.

Summit One-Day begins outside Denver at Red Rocks: natural stone, open sky, and a setting built for perspective. From there, the Retreat continues into the heart of the Rockies at Spring Canyon Conference Center, at the base of Mount Princeton and surrounded by the San Isabel National Forest. No crowds and no noise. Just altitude, honest conversation, and men who sharpen each other.

What's Included

  • Summit One-Day and VIP experience
  • One of 24 places in the Retreat
  • Lunch and six Retreat meals
  • Spring Canyon lodging Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu nights
  • One year of Community access, beginning immediately

What You'll Walk Away With

  • Clarity that cuts through chaos
  • Courage that holds when the next storm hits
  • A circle of trusted leaders you can actually call
  • Renewed focus on who you're leading, and why

Sunday night lodging and all transportation are not included.

Connect. Collaborate. Climb.

Connect

With leaders who understand the weight you carry. No junior staff, no one pitching. Just men at meaningful stages of leadership.

Collaborate

Across industries and roles. The CEO learns from the entrepreneur. The pastor hears from the business owner. Iron sharpens iron.

Climb

Together. This retreat is for leaders who refuse to stay where they are.

What Others Are Saying
A group of Retreat attendees pausing together with the Colorado mountains behind them.

“The Lead Bulletproof Summit is an amazing 5 day event that blends Leadership seminar and Outdoor Praise/Worship. The community of Godly men create a space where you are able to be both vulnerable and pushed to grow as a Husband, Father, and company leader. I look forward to next year's event and can't wait to see what the team prepares for the future!”

Seth H.

“This is one of the most impactful conference events I have ever been a part of.”

Chris C.

“It is a special gathering - the most unique that I have ever been a part of. The setting, the talking points, the discussion - all top notch!”

Just Summit One-Day

Not included: lodging and transportation.

Red Rocks Summit is open to men and women. One day, no deposit, no commitment beyond the day itself, a lower-key way to see what Lead Bulletproof is about before deciding on the Men's Full Summit Experience.

Register for Summit One-Day

Nonrefundable and nontransferable.

If your wife is able to join us, your registration includes a $400 gift for her. Invite her to the inaugural Women’s Regroup. While you’re at the Men’s Retreat, Barbara Gustavson is leading a parallel retreat for women at Spring Canyon, on the same days and with the same getaway experience. This is not a marriage retreat. Each of you will have your own time, your own group, and your own space to reset.

To honor the men who bring their wives to this first Women’s Regroup, Barbara is blessing your wife with a $400 Spouse Voucher toward her Women’s Summit Experience when you register for the Men’s Full Summit Experience and she registers for the Women’s. Email us before she registers and we’ll send her Spouse Voucher.

The $500 deposit is nonrefundable. All Summit registrations and deposits are nonrefundable because Community access begins immediately and capacity is limited. A Full Summit Experience seat can be given as a scholarship to someone you name or released to our scholarship pool. If you must cancel, no cash refund will be issued; instead, your Community access will be extended for one additional year. Sales close entirely on March 28, 2027. Read the complete Summit policy →
