2021 SnowCross #2 RAMBALAND!
A rippin fun course on a Hill Street loop on the amazing RAMBA trails. Race window: Feb 20th-March 14th Remember to post your Strava/Ride file to the UPcross FB page and if you don’t use FB you can email us directly at [email protected] - Parking is available by the start/finish area at the top of Jasper/Hill St area. -Virtual start and finish lines are on the trail. So there is no need to race through the access trail from the parking lot to the trail. This is a commonly used access point for many trail users, so please be aware and respectful. - The course is fairly direct but we will have some signage to make navigation easier. Signs may fall over or get buried in snow, so come prepared to navigate by GPS! A huge thanks to RAMBA for all their hard work and allowing us to use this amazing loop!
