The World Championship Snowmobile Hill Climb is taking place in Jackson, Wyoming this weekend is NASCAR for sledheads, an annual highmarking event that’s high-octane, adrenaline-fueled mayhem straight up the steepest ski run in North America on a snowmobile. This weekend more than 300 contestants from all over the world are competing see who can go balls-to-the-wall straight up Snow King Mountain on a 1,574-foot climb called Exhibition. Capped with an unfathomable 45-degree vertical section called Rock Garden, the aptly named double-black diamond run puts the wobble in extreme skiers’ knees and makes mincemeat out of $20,000 snowmachines every March. It’s billed as the steepest ski run in North America. Cowboy State Daily Article The attached video is from last year’s championship, I believe this year’s finals takes place today. We lived in Teton County and I got on a sled quite a few times. That part of my ranger district, up on Togwotee Pass is considered a snowmobiler’s Mecca and sledheads from snowmobiling strongholds all over the country aspire to make the trip to the deep powder and spectacular scenery on Togwotee. The Jackson/Snow King Hill Climb is just part of that culture. I think you’ll get a kick out of this video. _______________________________________________________ despite them | ||

Pretty exciting. I thought they'd be faster, maybe because I imagined it'd be like a motorcycle hill climb. They need to up their game in regards to runaway sleds. | |||

Nucking Futts. Is all I can say and that’s just talking about the ones trying to stop a rolling sled being push by gravity. ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ | |||

That video is great run at 2x speed. Nice is overrated "It's every freedom-loving individual's duty to lie to the government." Airsoftguy, June 29, 2018 | |||
