Sled that may be in it if I don't sell it first

Well as of 11:30 central time the Copper Peak Hill climb is on. My buddy Just left the board meeting at the hill and they said it is a go. So for all those interested Copper Peak hill climb will be happening 02/21/09
Just wondering how steep the hill really is, hard to tell from photo's, is it greater then 40 degree slope? What is the lenght of the climb and do a lot of mountain sleds say 155 and longer show up? Would be running a 155 rmk 700stock and may also have a 153 m8 turbo to run.
Thanks darren
Thanks darren

Darren,
I think you will have no problem with your sleds. They do run different classes of sleds and people bring 600cc sleds with only a 128" set-up (pretty much a sno-pro or freestly sled)
The slope from the very base to halfway up the hill is 45+ degree. Up the next half more vertical around 60+ and then smooths out towards the top.
The Hill climb is also a coursed out like an "Z" type course and not just a straight run up the hill. There are some Video's on youtube.com and exconfreeride.com and it really gives you an idea on how hard it is.
If you bring a stock sled I would take the hood off......or find one you don't want to destroy and toss it on. About half of the sleds come rolling down and I think some of the videos show it.
