Vertical Challenge

How it works

1. On March 9, check-in begins at 8:30 am at the SKI for MS tent by Gondola One.
2. Start tracking the pow! The Vertical Challenge begins at 10 am.
3. Carve to a stop! Every vertical foot counts until 3 pm. You have the entire mountain to carve out your own adventure.
4. Submit your vertical feet by 3pm.
5. Rip your way to après, winners will be announced during the après party!

How to track your vertical feet
There are several options! SKI for MS does not endorse one app over another.

• Epic Mix App or use an app of your choice that will track your vertical feet.
• Use a watch (Suunto, Apple, Garmin, etc.). Just show us your watch totals!
• Go old school. Count your runs and use a map of the mountain to calculate your vertical feet. We trust you!
