About this event
White Pass announces the 2027 Ninety-Pound Rucksack Challenge for February 18 at 5:00 PM, honoring the 10th Mountain Division's World War II ascent of Riva Ridge and its post-war contribution to American skiing. The current 2027 artwork and calendar confirm the edition and start. Participants climb on touring skis with skins or snowshoes and descend after checking out. The page says entry is free and registration is required, but it does not currently expose a live 2027 registration link; body copy still contains two stale 2026 year references, so only the independently current 2027 heading/calendar date and year-neutral format are treated as confirmed.
At a glance
Touring-ski/skins or snowshoe participants prepared for an after-dark uphill challenge. The optional weighted challenge is described, but current 2027 weight/category rules are not published.
