class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">The Five Peaks, North America\u2019s highest ski mountaineering race, concluded Saturday in Breckenridge with nearly 10 inches of fresh snow, at least 60 mph wind gusts, and a few pieces of gear blown off of the racers. The long-course participants started in Beaver Run Village near Main Street to cap off the five peaks of the Tenmile Range with nearly 7,000 feet of vertical gain. From the wind-chilling summit of Peak 10, 13,640 feet above sea level, to the finish line at the Peak 7 base of the resort filled with slushy, melting snow, the racers felt approximately a 50-degree difference in the span of a few hours. Carbondale\u2019s Paul Hamilton and Doug Stenclik finished first with a time of 3 hours and 10 minutes.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.summitdaily.com\/news\/photos-five-peaks-skimo-race\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">via:: Summit Daily<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Breckenridge resident Nikki LaRochelle races down the 4th of July bowl on Peak 10 during the 5 Peaks ski mountaineering race Saturday, April 27, in Breckenridge.
