Uphill access will be provided for the Marquette Mountain DH race. We require a Full Face Helmet and recommend proper downhill safety equipment.

Riders will have practice time Sunday before the race. Chairlifts open at 10am and a full day lift pass is included with your race entry. Please make sure to attend the racer meeting at 9:45 am.

New for 2024 will be a more traditional format. Riders will have a seeding run in the morning after practice, a small window for more practice, and a final SINGLE run. No more best-of-two runs. We will require that the top 20 male riders and top 6 women riders drop in the correct seeding order and all the rest of the riders will drop before the top 26 go.

Expect high speeds, technical rock gardens, berms and jumps as you try and complete 600 vertical feet as fast as you can down Marquette Mountain! Expect more changes to the course this year through the infamous rock garden.

We now have age categories!
This will be consistent with the Lake Superior Gravity Series and the races included in that series.
*****To be scored appropriately for the Lake Superior Gravity Series, your race age is determined by your age on October 6, 2024*****
MTF DH podium categories:
Overall M & W (1st, 2nd, 3rd)
M & W – 16 and Under (1st, 2nd, 3rd)
M & W – 40 and Over (1st, 2nd, 3rd)
If you get 1st, 2nd, or 3rd Overall, you get bumped out of your age category.
