What’s this year’s hot new Viking accessory you ask? Necklaces made out of Shot Bloks! Read on to get the full account below… The Clif crew gets to be a part of many events that have stood the test of time so it’s no surprise that we often hear the word “tradition” used to describe an event’s proud past.

Especially in Utah where it’s cold, it’s cold, aaaaand it’s cold. To quote the Utah region crew captain George: "it gets downright nuclear out there with 100 inches in 100 hours."
