About this event
PLEASE READ!!
REGISTRATION: You must be a current member of NHA to register for an NHA sanctioned event. Please renew/purchase your 2024 Northwest Hillclimb Association membership before attempting to enter our event.
The City of Emmett is excited to have the 58th running of the Freezeout Annual Hillclimb; currently the longest consecutive running hillclimb in North America.
Tech will be ON THE HILL, Old Freezeout Rd. on Friday from 5:00-8:00pm. For anyone that cannot make it Friday, we will be able to tech Saturday morning, or Sunday for anyone only racing Sunday, but you must be there by 8:00am. Preferably if at all possible, please make it to tech on Friday to reduce the scrambling and anxiety of the volunteers. Please note: we will not have food service at the hill this year. Be prepared to have lunch with you or to have someone bring you lunch. We will have approximately 1-hour for lunch both days, which should be enough to run into town to grab something quick, but ideally we encourage participants to have a sandwich or whatever lunch of their choice ready. Thanks!
