On Feb. 5, the Cooper Spur Alpine Team (CSAT) hosted the annual Cooper Duel ski race at Cooper Spur Ski Area on Mount Hood. The Cooper Duel is a unique format in which racers run head to head on two adjacent slalom courses which provides ample opportunity for fierce competition, thrills, spills, and more cowbell.
Racers get two runs (one on each course) and results are calculated based on combined times.
For the second year in a row, weather and snow conditions pulled together to allow CSAT to run the event at their namesake area. Last year over 250 racers from the Mt. Hood Mitey Mite council participated in the race and this year saw 265 registered racers from Cooper Spur Alpine Team, Meadows Race Team (MRT), Multnomah Athletic Club (MAC), Mt. Hood Race Team and Academy (MHRTA), and independent racers. While conditions were not as pleasant as 2016, racers took the snow, rain, fog, mist, and challenging, soft and rutted course conditions in stride. Race results are as follows:
