Overview

Getting to the bottom is the easy part…

Descending into the canyon may not be a challenge, but transitioning to the uphill ascent sure is!  In order to successfully make the transition without touching the valley floor, athletes must maintain full lower body control without losing forward momentum.  Warning: ground clearance may vary from race to race!
