The Ninety-Pound Rucksack Challenge is an annual ski mountaineering event that honors the legacy of the 10th Mountain Division, their historic World War II ascent of Italy’s Riva Ridge and their post-war contributions to American skiing.

The event entails ascending the mountain at Ski Cooper and over 20 other ski areas simultaneously on February 18th at 7 p.m. local time—the anniversary of the Riva Ridge ascent.
