Summit for Life Summit for Life Uphill Race invites local enthusiasts and regional sports junkies to charge up over 3,000 vertical feet to the top of Aspen Mountain using their preferred choice of lighting and non-motorized equipment – snowshoes, skins and other creative means in the dead of night. There will be two different start times. For climbers that anticipate taking longer than 2 hours to reach the top there is a Recreational start at 5:15 p.m. and for those that think it will take them less than 2 hours to summit there is the Competitive start at 6 p.m. Skip the uphill hike altogether and register to ride on the Silver Queen Gondola straight to the summit to enjoy dinner, dancing and cheering on the athletes as they come through the finish line. The event benefits Chris Klug Foundation that is dedicated to raise awareness of the importance of organ and tissue donation.
