The Emma Crawford coffin races are Saturday October 26th, 2019 in Manitou Springs. Manitou Avenue will be closed from 9 AM to 4 PM and the Incline shuttle won’t run while Manitou Avenue is closed. The Iron Springs Chateau parking lot will only be open from 5:30 AM to 7:30 AM.
In addition to all the congestion from the coffin races, you can expect the top part of the Incline to be icy from the snow Wednesday night. Using traction devices such as Kahtoola Microspikes is highly recommended if you do hike.
