Race Summary

Once again, Mother Nature stepped in to send 8 inches of snow just four days before race day. Prior to the snow, warm weather and rain made holding the race questionable. The finish line was changed several times during the week. The final finish line was set up at Duffy’s Field just before Lake Hayward.

After the snow, over 600 skiers registered in just three days. Rain fell Friday night and Saturday washing away parts of the course, but skiers prevailed. Some called it the “miracle race.”
