Time to get your spandex dusted off, charge your batteries, and come run around in the dark on your skis! Tuesday’s race will start and end at the bottom of the Great Western chair at Brighton Resort.
The course will consist of a climb up to Elk Park ridge with a short ski down the face, then another short skin and end with a ripper of a downhill down a groomer back to the bottom. The course will be 670 feet per lap. Folks on race gear will do three laps while folks with other gear will do two laps of the course.
Race will start promptly 7pm. Remember a helmet and headlamp are mandatory because we race on unlit portions of the mountain. NO EXCEPTIONS!
A few reminders for the season: EVERYONE needs to have signed BOTH the Utah skimo waiver and Brighton waiver. Please sign them before you come up to Brighton to make check in faster for you and our volunteers. Also, make sure to park by the Milly Chalet and walk across the parking lot to Great Western. Remember – sign BOTH waivers!
We have partnered with Black Diamond to kick off the season with a killer raffle. How it works: 1. Sign up with a membership for the 19/20 season, 2. Follow both utahskimo and blackdiamond_snow on Instagram, 3. Come race on Tuesday night. Winners will be announced on Instagram. Black Diamond will also have a van with all sorts of cool toys to demo. Make sure you leave enough time to if you want to demo gear before the start.
See you up there!
