1st Annual

Jack-N-Jill Randonee Weekend

Teton Pass Ski Resort Choteau, Montana

March 2-3, 2013

Join us for the first annual Jack-N-Jill Randonee Weekend!  We have the No-Name Scramble on Saturday at 1:30 PM and the more challenging Jack-N-Jill race on Sunday morning at 9:30 AM. It’s going to be a fun-filled weekend with something for everyone with prizes from several great businesses as well as live music, and food + drink specials!

You may wonder, what is this “randonee” we speak of? Randonee, also known as Alpine Touring, refers to a type of skiing in which you ascend the mountain using your own power with the aid of special bindings and “skins”, a Velcro like material that sticks to the snow.  A Randonee Race involves “skinning”  up a set track  and then racing down a designated course.  The winner is the person who completes the course in the least amount of time.  Snowboarders welcome!

Make a weekend of it! Below is the schedule of events and race guidelines:
