About the Event

Before your race, ensure you review and complete the necessary competition waiver. You can access it through the provided link prior to arriving at check-in. Having this form signed will allow for smoother entry into the venue; otherwise, expect longer lines.
Upon arrival, athletes are divided into two queues: those who have already raced this season and those needing to sign or verify their waivers. Stand in the appropriate line based on your status. Remember, this waiver is separate from any lift ticket agreements you may need to consider separately for access to facilities beyond just racing.
This event promises a unique running experience amidst breathtaking scenery. The course takes runners through diverse terrains—from lush forests and winding trails to open meadows and rocky paths. Expect challenges that test your stamina and agility, set against the backdrop of stunning natural landscapes.
Whether you're a seasoned runner looking for new benchmarks or a newcomer eager to explore this scenic route, prepare yourself for an unforgettable race day. The atmosphere is vibrant with support from fellow runners and spectators along the course.
