For the past five years the Idyllwild Spring Challenge has provided great awards.  2010 will be no different.  Our famous handmade granite plaques are back but to acquire one this year you'll have to race in the Stage Race!  Other awards for each separate discipline will be yet another handmade masterpiece; powder coated steel (a big thank you to Temecula Valley Powder Coating, see Race Sponsor page) and lasered glass medals.  Race the Stage Race and you can take home a great collection!

And once again, local steel sculpture, Dore Capitani, will create a one of a kind metal sculpture for the winners of the King & Queen of the Mountain.  Dore's work is amazing and is always on display at his studio of of Hwy 243 between Idyllwild and Mountain Center.  A big thank you also to Charles Magallanes who works along side Dore and has volunteered his time in helping with our beautiful awards.
