We will also have a gift bag for each racer. If you cannot make it during this time please reach out to Brendan at bcollins@aspensnowmass.com to make arrangements for day of pickup.

MANDATORY Day of RACER CHECK-IN

All racers will be required to check in the morning of the race prior to the start. This includes those that picked up their bib the previous day.

Start Details

The start for both distance races will be in Snowmass Base Village. The Power of Four and the Power of Two will both start at 8am.

Finish

The Power of Four will finish in Aspen's Upper Gondola Plaza. The Power of Two will finish and at the base of the Tiehack lift at Buttermilk and racers are encouraged to continue along the bike path to the PO4 finish where we will have a post race meal and awards.

Parking/Transportation

Parking is available in the Snowmass Base Village garage. There is a free bus from the finish line in Aspen to Snowmass on RFTA. Free parking is also available at the Intercept Lot (intersection of Highway 82 and Brush Creek Road) with free buses to both start and finish locations.

Racer Bags

Each racer will be allowed to deposit one bag at the start that will be shuttled to either finish line. In an effort to reduce waste we will not provide a bag, please bring your own. Make sure your name and bib number are clearly written on the outside of the bag.

Course Marking

The course will be marked with red/white striped tape and directional signage with the event logo.

Aid Stations

The aid stations will have water, electrolyte mix, Red Bull, Coca Cola, pretzels, potato chips, candy and other snacks to keep you fueled.
You should plan to be able to make it from aid station to station without additional support.

  • Stay on the designated trails; no short-cutting switchbacks. Those attempting to take short-cuts will be disqualified and publicly shamed.
  • Headphones are permitted, but please be respectful when entering aid stations and crossing other trails. Be aware that the trails are open to the public and, in spots, cross other trails that may include cyclist, runners, hikers, etc. Please rock-out responsibly.
  • If you choose to drop out please alert the nearest aid station personnel. We do not want to worry your emergency contact person!
  • No littering! We have trash cans and recycle bins at each aid station. Just because it's a race doesn't mean you get to forget your manners.
  • If you must relieve yourself, please use a bathroom (available at the top of Aspen Mtn, Tiehack,) or discretion...
  • All riders must carry a water bottle or hydration pack.
