Curious to hear more. Only tough climb I've ever seen there is the one right next to the notch up to the alpine and I can't see them having a hillclimb competition on that!

Didn't they used to have the last race of the season there years ago when there was a hillclimb circut? I remember they used to have the snowcross race the same weekend. Like already posted, I think because of the insurance it all got shut down. It used to be the weekend after the ski hill closed for the season.

From what I've heard, it WILL be the weekend after the hill closes on the Morrisey side. This is info from someone that works for sun peaks corp. With the hill they are using it will basically be a time trial.......

I think the last time it was there was mid April 2005. I believe there was several different classes from stock to modified. They also had a snowcross race that a few of my buddies went in. They had mountain sleds racing against short tracks but they had a blast doing it.

Ran into Luke from Leading Edge on Friday sounded like it was a $$ issue, someone wanted too much of it.
