March 18th Course Update - Peak 7 Climb is back, and it's bigger.

Yes it's true - the Peak 7 climb that made the post-race beer taste even better is back and it's bigger. We've moved the bottom of the climb down the hill and out of the ski area boundary via the Ore Bucket backcountry gate.

We're also going to Peak 9 a second time via The Buttress and the north ridge. Racers should expect very firm spring snow for this climb (it's full sun) so we'll require crampons if conditions require.
