Army Open

This course was designed to make runners Army Strong. I guess the West Point Ski Team is allowed to take the chair lift up the mountain. Cross country teams run up the slope with the lift hanging motionless overhead. The hills that you see in the video are on the golf course section of this 5k course. This is an excellent early season opportunity for the athletes to see where they're at, and to get some quality hill training done. Spectacular venue for spectators. I included a couple of pics from my cliffside ride along Storm King Mountain heading home.
