Course Description:
The America's Uphill begins at the base of Little Nell and ascends 3,267 feet up the Aspen Mountain ski area finishing at the Sundeck Restaurant at an elevation of 11,212 feet.. The course follows Little Nell to the Bell Mountain Chair, then proceeds up Bingo Slot to Spar Gulch. The long steep climb up Spar continues to the base of the Ajax Express (Lift 3) From here, there's a small reprieve on Tortilla Flats before the climb begins again in earnest. At this point, the race follows a maze of trails starting up Deer Park to Pussyfoot, Silverbell, and Easy Chair, finally topping out at the Sundeck. Inspection of the race course prior to race day is recommended. Information concerning the race course or the timing of your inspection may be obtained from the Aspen Mountain Ski Patrol on the Aspen Mountain Ski Area.
