vertical race

{{For|the 1983 Soviet film|Vertical Race (film)}}

A vertical race is a special kind of ski mountaineering without the typical downhill skiing after ascending. At the mountain running and climbing passages the runners have to carry their skis in their backpacks. Vertical races for women and men are part of all international ski mountaineering competitions of the International Council for Ski Mountaineering Competitions as well as at many national competitions. The Union Internationale des Associations d'Alpinisme (UIAA)is working toward the goal of having vertical race become an Olympic discipline at the 2018 Winter Olympics, .[http://www.mountains2b.com/1166-Dachstein_Xtreme_2008_Streckenaenderungen_beschlos-,e_76517,r_8997.htm Die Sportart Skibergsteigen] {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080820002125/http://www.mountains2b.com/1166-Dachstein_Xtreme_2008_Streckenaenderungen_beschlos-,e_76517,r_8997.htm |date=August 20, 2008 }} (German) in Dachstein Xtreme 2008: Streckenänderungen beschlossen, mountains2b.com, March 2008.{{Update inline|date=June 2023}}
