About the PK's Baldy Challenge
The PK's Baldy Challenge is a challenge to ski and ride all of Sun Valley's lifts and runs in the month of February. You’ll have the chance to compete against local legends, your peers, or just yourself if that’s more your style. Individual Awards are available, and create or join a team to also be eligible for Team Awards.
