Record Broken Most Skied Vert

Mountaineers Greg Hill and Jimmy Faust recently did the incredible. They skied 50,000 vertical feet of mountain in 24 hours...all self-propelled. The effort was part of a race called 24 Hours of Sunlight, the first-ever uphill/downhill 24-hour ski race, which was recently held outside of Glenwood Springs, Colorado. Apparently the effort got the pair into the Guinness Book of World Records for the most self-powered vertical ever skied in 24 hours. To read more about the record check out Wildsnow.
