It will be open for HG & PG and will be a Class C HPAC Sanctioned event meaning it will be race to goal tasks. You will need a GPS if you want to get credit for turnpoints and goal finishes. If you don't have a GPS, I'll take your word that you got to the first turnpoint but anything after that, you need GPS proof!

$15 entry fee + mandatory $30 for lift tickets.
