Do you consider yourself a brave one? If so, be sure to test your mettle at this one-of-a-kind, marginally dangerous event. The Outhouse Races take place on Feb. 18 at 3 p.m. at Sapphire Valley Ski Area. If you enjoy the excitement of NASCAR or the pinewood derby races, this is those on steroids. Be one of the many, the few, and the courageous to compete for the throne — or say you tried.
Bring out your imagination as your outhouses can be made of wood, cardboard, plastic, or any other homemade materials.
