The competition continues on Ultimate Mountain Athlete, presented by the 2024 Toyota Tacoma, with the conclusion of the climbing stage. We see who had the top sends for podium spots, then move up to the alpine proving grounds of the Colorado high country. On Red Mountain 3, the altitude takes its toll as the athletes race head-to-head in a Vertical Sprint up to the 12,859-foot summit—twice. Then comes the fun part: the downhill. Though for this timed Big Mountain Descent, points are still on the line. The athletes are judged on individual lines that they must navigate back down 1,934 feet of steep and hazardous, cliff-lined terrain. Learn more about the 2024 Tacoma and watch the complete second episode of Ultimate Mountain Athlete.
