Backpack class

This competition is the "ultimate fun contest" within the Vertical Up!

Each athlete tackles the Familienstreif vertically at their own pace with free choice of equipment.

The only requirement: A backpack, including its contents (or whatever is left of it), must be carried to the finish line. The contents of the backpack are the starter pack.

Timing and ranking: Only timing is recorded; ranking is done alphabetically. The winner is the participant who comes closest to the average time of all starters!

Winners: This year, there will again be an amazing grand prize for the top 3 positions (regardless of gender) in this category!
