SPECTATORS
This event is EXTREMELY spectator friendly with a stadium area, complete with bleachers. The bleachers are set up to over look the stadium that allows spectators to see each athlete ski through on 7 different occasions before completing their event. Spectators are encouraged to bring their own lawn chairs. You can stay in one location and see all the action! This is unique to this style of event and different from what we are used to in racing events from our region. Parking will be available for the spectators in the Telemark Parking Lot. The parking will be available in the Telemark parking lot and in the airport field.
