Course Description
This year’s race will provide two course options on Saturday 24th March. The Youth and Enduro courses will climb from Whitehorn Lodge, over the Summit, to Richardson’s Ridge, and back to the Base Area finish by way of Temple Lodge – approximately 620 metres / 2000 feet of climbing and descending. The Race/Elite course will add in an ascent through Rock Garden, over Larch, and a descent of Elevator Shaft to give a legend-in-the-making 5000+ feet of vert. Both routes exit down the ski out, for fun final skates and tucks to the finish.
