Crystal Mountain will be hosting the Mountain Challenge 5th annual Silver King Freeride Big Mountain competition on March 21-24, 2007.

I belive so.
The venues are:

1) One run qualification on day one. Venue, most likely Chair 6
2) Last year we ran off the top of Bear Pits however we're seroiulsy looking at running day 2 off the Finger chute in the north back.
3) Day three, the king

Judging: In accordance with IFSA.org guidelines and requirements.

On behalf of the 2007 judging staff, I’d like to thank the 70+ athletes that competed in the 5th Annual Crystal Mt .SILVER KING FREERIDE Big Mountain Competition. Conditions on day 1 & 2 were far from ideal however the athletes got their break on Saturday as the rather abundant moisture soften conditions allowing for more significant air time

WAY TO GO!!!
