Event notes
*USA SKIMO SANCTIONED*

The Bacon Brawl includes two course options. The Primary Course is designed for racers looking to test their limits on a 8.1-mile loop and 4,500 feet of vertical gain.

The Recreation Course offers an easier route that delivers a 5.5-mile loop and 2,000 feet of vertical gain. Whether you’re a seasoned skimo vet gunning for the top spot, or new to the sport and want to give skinning uphill and zipping downhill on skinny skis a try, the Bacon Brawl is sure to be a good time for racers of all levels.
