This coupon has no expiration date. The remaining 20% acts as a change fee to help cover the overhead and processing fees for both the event you missed and the one for which you are registering.  Transfers within the same series are allowed on a case-by-case basis.

How to Create a Team During Registration

How to Join an Existing Team

Here at IronHike, we use a "FlexRelay" format for each of our events. 

We call them "FlexRelays" because they are flexible.  Each team member, whether in the Trail Buddy or Trail Team event, has no minimum or maximum laps, mileage, elevation, or time on the course.  Teams manage who is on the mountain for how long and when according to conditions, fitness levels the needs of the team. 

Mohawk Mountain is a Cornwall, Litchfield County, Connecticut ski area. It was built on the northwest slope of Mohawk Mountain by Walt Schoenknecht in 1947. It is a popular destination for day and night skiers, snowboarders, and off-season events.
