8K Shedhorn Race
The 8K course is great for first-timers to ski mountaineering or those graduating from the Shedling. This route takes you up to the top of Swift Current, crosses to a bootpack up the LRT Traverse, and descends down Firehole before returning to the Mountain Village. This race is exposed to steep terrain and requires knowledge of self-arrest techniques and expert ski ability.
