KAGO Hill back Moore ParkRacers will be faced with "Killer KAGO Hill", a steep paved paved road. It may be only 3/10 of a mile, but it feels more like 3. It raises from 4104 ft to 4311 ft. The race will then travel "The Gravel Boulevard" toward Moore Park. This has the max elevation of the course at 4387 ft. Those surviving will continue to Moore Park and a tour through the upper sections of the park. Racers are advised to watch out for deer and the occasional cougar, oh and speed bumps. The views are well worth the short climbs. Spectators, you can walk or bike to KAGO Hill to watch pilots sweat up this steep challenge. You can bike or walk with the sculptures along the Gravel Blvd to Moore Park, 2 or 3 miles. Moore ParkYou can watch from several places, depending on how fast you are and how fast the sculptures are. They will finish this leg at the picnic area. Vehicles should start arriving around 12:16 PM. Here's another chance to see the vehicles and talk to the racers. |

SandHow could you have a Kinetic Sculpture Race without sand? However for the KKC this section is short, just long enough to sink the unprepared and amaze the hordes of fans. This will occur in Moore Park starting at 1:30 PM. Each sculpture will be individually timed through this section. |
This finishes the Klamath Kinetic Challenge for the day.
