Vertfest 2011, Alpental, Washington

VertFest is the biggest backcountry skiing and snowboarding festival and rando rally race in the NW. We're expanding for 2011 with the addition of clinics, a film fest and gear demos!

Come join us for a weekend of backcountry ski and snowboard clinics, demos, films and of course the biggest rando rally in the Northwest! It all begins on Saturday February 12th at Alpental with Ski Photography clinics with Grant Gunderson and Jason Hummel, Sidecountry Steeps clinics with pros and guides from Pro Guide Service, and avalanche awareness clinics with the Alpental Ski Patrol.

Once the fun is over on the mountain, come join us for the Backcountry Film Festival at the North Bend theater in the evening. There will be awesome gear raffles, a chance to check out the latest product showcased by our sponsors and time to enjoy a beer and food in our beer garden, and of course some great backcountry films!

Sunday the 13th is race day, so don't drink too much on Saturday at the film fest!
