DETAILED COURSE DESCRIPTION FOR PRE-RIDERS:

Start is at the base of the mountain road, just past the Sorensen Park sign on the north end of the base area.

* Follow the road up and past Tunnel Hill.
* Right after Tunnel Hill the climb gets a bit steeper, turn right at the intersection about 100 yards after Tunnel Hill.
* You'll pass four switchbacks, with the last one being out on a ski trail. About 100 yards after the fourth switchback, turn left at the intersection.
* This section eases up and is fast to 5 Points. Continue straight and the climb will get tougher again. Eventually you'll come out at the base of the High Lonesome chairlift, turn left here staying on the main road.
* After a bit you'll ride under a chairlift (Olympia). About 200 yards later turn right at the base of a ropetow lift. You'll see the Sunspot ski lodge ahead, don't go up to the lodge.
