CLIMB THE HEIGHT
- To complete the challenge you must gain the total elevation of your chosen Everesting Challenge in one effort.
- Quarter Everesting 2212m (7258ft)
Half Everesting 4424m (14,515ft)
Full Everesting 8848m (29,029ft)
Everesting Roam 10,000m+ (32,809ft+) - Check routes and segments on the Everesting calculator to make sure they appropriate.
- Your attempt must be recorded on Strava.
ONE HILL
- Anything that has a vertical gain can be used to complete a ski Everesting.
- The chosen route must only focus on one hill or mountain (e.g. you can’t base yourself in one location and ski multiple hills).
- Repeats must be full ascents of your chosen climb each time. You can’t commit to a combination of full and half laps.
- Once you hit your climbing target you can abandon that repeat.
- You can start and finish the ski Everesting anywhere on the hill (bottom, middle, or top)
- Each repeat must be skied up and down (i.e. you can’t get transported down each time).
- You need to keep your device recording the whole time.
SINGLE ACTIVITY
- The challenge must be completed in one attempt with no sleep.
- Breaks for meals are acceptable.
- You can break for as long as you need, keep in mind this counts towards the total elapsed time. Your final time for the challenge is taken as the total elapsed time of the attempt, not the total moving time.
