Come out to Diamond Peak Ski Resort and participate in a fun uphill/downhill challenge!
What used to be simply the Diamond Peak Uphill/Downhill Dash is being expanded into a full weekend of fun this Friday through Sunday, March 30 - April 1.
Friday features FREE human-powered sports films from Patagonia at the Apres-Ski Registration Party in the Base Lodge. Register for the uphill/downhill race in advance using the link below, at the party on Friday, or day-of before the race.
On Saturday, after the resort closes for skiing, you're invited to race to the top of the mountain using whatever human-powered method you prefer: skins, snowshoes, running shoes, etc., then ski, snowboard, snowshoe, or run back down to the finish line. For those of a less competitive nature, a recreational course to mid-mountain will be available. Prizes will be awarded for both categories.
The weekend will also include backcountry workshops, avalanche education, and more. Register in advance to get the discounted rates, prices go up day-of.
 The event is being co-hosted by the Sierra Avalanche Center with certain activities having a suggested donation to the Center in order to incorporate a fundraising aspect. The focus will be on fun, skiing, family and enjoying the great outdoors via human-powered sports.
