Sisyphus, a Greek king known for his punishment of rolling an immense boulder up a hill only for it to roll back down as he neared the top, inspired our Fool’s Errand this spring! The goal of the challenge was to rack up as much elevation gain as possible in a week's time using any mode of transportation purely human powered (ski, walk, bike, etc.). 

In lieu of our usual Wy'easter SkiMo race this year, we opted for a virtual vertical challenge open to all modes of human-powered transportation! 

Proceeds go to our newly founded Everett & Ida Darr Scholarship - a scholarship to create more equity and diversity in the outdoors and help remove financial barriers to entry in the outdoor community. 

The Leagues:
  • Beast League: These folks eat vert for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
  • Rec League: This crew is a little more casual, but still ready to rumble!
  • Shop League: Mountain Shop Employees & Ambassadors!
Final Tally of Elevation Gained:

 

Total Elevation for the Crew: 660,099 Feet!!
