  • Be safe! Don’t expose yourself to avalanche danger any more than you would on any other tour (ski with a partner!). Don’t interfere with ski area setup/operations. Ski in control - you’re not in an organized race! If you don’t have a safe ski option, complete the challenging on running trails!

  • Race category winner will be determined by the absolute total vertical ascent in exactly a three hour period using a valid Strava file. Race Category entrants must also complete a minimum of (3) laps but can certainly do more!
  • Citizen category entrants just have to record a vert total for a three hour period to be entered into the prize drawing! No limits on number of laps - just get out and ski for 3 hrs!
