Opener Course & Start Info

Last Updated: 30.Nov.2013

Course:
Here is the Course Map for tomorrow's Craftsbury Opener. Start and finish are in the lower field. From the start, racers head up the gradual "Coaching Hill", straight across the upper field and into the woods. Then the course follows the man-made loop around Lemon's Haunt. Upon arriving back in the lower field, racers take an immediate left up the steep "Chip Hill", and then wind around back down Coaches Hill, keeping right (2-way traffic here!) Skiers will then enter the "Biathlon Loop" going counter clockwise, and take a wider radius for the lap, but a tighter radius to finish under the wooden arch.

Laps:
BKL: 2 laps
U-16: 3 laps
Everyone else: 5 laps
