DETAH,S & DOCUMENTS:
Event Summary:
We expect 50 participants and up to 15 volunteers and staff. We do not anticipate
any vendors, security or other personnel.
The event is open to the public who can register for the event at Ute Mountaineer
0
or on-line. Registration fee is $15.00/adult participant, $7/under 18, $30/family.
There will be no limit to the number of participants since we expect far fewer than
the venue can accommodate. No training is necessary for the volunteers since the
event is a simple one-way race uphill and because most of the volunteers have
experience at this or similar events. What little training may be required will take
place prior to the event at the Start Line. There will be no amplified music.
Site Plan (and maps):
The course begins at the winter gate closure on Highway 82 east of Aspen, near
mile marker 47, and concludes 7 kilometers up the corridor at the Lincoln Creek
turnoff, mm 52.
There will be no significant infrastructure associated with the event. Temporary
and portable trash containers and porta-potties will be provided as will 'pop-up'
tents at the Start and Finish Line. These will all be removed the day of the event.
Since there is no auto traffic on the road at this time, there will be no need for
traffic control. Parking will be at the winter gate area, which will be ample.
Course personnel will be equipped with walkie-talkies to stay in communication
and for any potential emergencies. There will be no food or drink vending
although hot drinks will be supplied to participants. Security will not be necessary.
Communication Plan:
Staff is Karin Teague, Executive Director of the Independence Pass Foundation
and Event Sponsor (274-9690), Paul Perley, Ute Mountaineer Staff and Event
Director (920-1471), and Austin Weiss, City of Aspen Trails Manager, track -
setter. Radio frequencies will be assigned on-site and will be used for emergencies
only. Attendees and the public will be notified of conditions and other relevant
information through local newspapers, twitter, Facebook and e-mail. No
informational signage at the event is anticipated due to the small number of
participants and the simplicity of the course and event.
There will be one aid station at the midway point of the race (Weller Lake
Trailhead, Mile Marker 49). The person manning the aid station (identity not yet
determined) will have a radio with access to emergency aid. We do not anticipate
any medical emergencies due to the small number of participants and the brief
duration of the event. Two snowmobiles will be available in case of any need for
emergency evacuation.
Security Plan:
This event does not pose risk to the participants or the public. The secluded nature
of the site and the absence of any other traffic or facilities reduces public hazard to
zero. Since this is a cross-country ski race we anticipate that all participants will
be physically fit and reasonably experienced and the course itself it not technically
demanding or dangerous in any way. Since the course is limited to the Highway
82 platform and adjacent developed areas (i.e. Winter Gate, Weller Trailhead,
Lincoln Creek Road tumoff), there will be no impact on the environment. As
noted above, the Finish Line, Start Line and midway aid station will be equipped
with emergency radios for communication along the course and with emergency
responders.

noted above, the Finish Line, Start Line and midway aid station will be equipped
with emergency radios for communication along the course and with emergency
responders.
Transportation/Traffic Plan:
All participants are responsible for their own transportation to the event site. Due
to the small number of participants and the availability of parking near the Start
Line, we anticipate that participants will drive themselves or car pool and park
near the Winter Gate. Since the road is closed to auto traffic, there will be no
conflicts with other users due to this arrangement. There will be no other impacts
on private or public roads or streets."
Parking Plan:
See above.
Sanitation/Recycling Plan:
A single portable restroom will be made available at the Start Line. There is no
way to transport a porta-potty above the Winter Gate. Hot drinks and water will be
available at the Start Line and at the Finish Line and water and energy drinks will
be available a the Weller Aid Station. Those three locations will be equipped with
temporary trash boxes and liners and all trash (mostly consisting of paper cups)
will be carried out and disposed of properly after the event."
Alcohol Mitigation Plan:
No alcohol will be available at the event.
Accessibility Plan:
The event will be fully accessible to any disabled person.
Alcohol Permit & License:
N/A
Food Permit:
As noted above, warm drinks (hot water with instant tea or hot chocolate
additives) will be available at the Start and Finish Lines. Cold liquids (water,
'Gatorade' or similar energy drink) will be available at the Start and Finish lines
and at the Weller Aid Station. No other food will be provided.
Parks/Open Space Permit:
N/A
Reviewed and accepted: NO
Sales Tax & Bus. License:
N/A: No vendors will be at the event.
Reviewed and accepted: NO
Miscellaneous Permits:
N/A
Public Notification:
No impacts to the public are anticipated. Notice to the public will be made
through newspaper and radio announcements and posters. The remote location of
the event and its non -motorized, and inherently quiet nature reduces the possibility
of any impact. The only noise produced from the event will be that of
snowmobiles, which use the area regularly during the winter season, and possibly
a gas generator to keep liquids warm."
Liability Insurance:
Pitkin County will be listed as an additional insured in the amount required above
and a certificate of insurance documenting same will be provided at least one
week prior to the event.
There are no agencies currently assigned to approve this event.

Karin, I spoke with Mike and Lance and see that the 2014 and 2015 ski events were so small and
easy( time wise) to process ( with emergency services etc) that we did not charge. The rationale is
that the RIDE for the pass application fee can cover both events.
Thus , from now on when you submit the Ride for the Pass permit application, please include
mention of the Ski Event (even if the detailed application is submitted later).Then technically your
application costs are covered( but we deal with the event coordination/ emergency services referral
just prior to the event).
Make sense?
Thanks, Cindy
