1988 Magazine Article
1988 was the year of legends for the Classic. Chuck Comstock flew off a cliff with his parapente, the race was held for the first time at the favorite Nabesna to McCarthy venue and strategy played a key role for the winner. This article for Ultrarunning magazine details all of it. Enjoy!

Thanks for posting this. It's my all time favorite race, both as a racer and as a race organizer. Note Hollis French and Dick Griffith and Doug Pope and Brant McGee were all there.
ReplyDeleteThis is where I met Bob Kaufman who remains a good friend, as does Mark Stoppel, Dave Manzer, and Dick.
Adrian Crane and Tom Possert got me into commercial adventure racing with an invite to race with them in a 1996 X-Games and the notorius BC Eco-Challenge.
