This footage was taken in 2009 when I followed the race from start to finish for our documentary film "The Mountain Runners"(www.themountainrunners.com.) The film is about the original Mount Baker Marathon Races to the mountain summit in 1911-13.It was challenging getting every leg of the race and since I was trapped at the ski hill until they let the cars go, I had a bit of my own race to get the footage I wanted. Mel Monkelis asked me to put this together for the award ceremony to add a little something extra. Anything for Mel and Ski to Sea! Well done guys and volunteers! As big and fascinating as Ski to Sea is, it is nothing compared to the original race. Wait until you hear the true story, you won't believe it.
