Itinerary:
The Canadian Ski Mountaineering Circuit is pleased to announce that the 3rd Annual MEC Vert180 Ski Mountaineering Race at Canada Olympic Park will be held on December 1, 2011 from 6 to 9pm. After the first year you ask for more snow so last year we bought you a blizzard with powder skiing at COP. Last year you asked for more vertical so COP trucked tonnes of dirt to make the climb even higher. This is a great way to meet new ski partners, get in shape for the season or if you are a beginner, learn how to use your gear in a control fun environment. The race will be three hours (180 minutes) with three main categories, solo, pairs or 4 (or 3)person relay teams. The most vertical feet climbed and descended wins in each respective category. There is also youth and teen options. Discounts for pre-registration and the first 100 people to register will get a special prize. Food will be included and there will be door prizes given out at the after party.
Required Items to Bring:
This event is posted to bring this to all the skier's attention and to take advantage of a great local event.
