2025 Best Ranger Competition Opening Ceremony begins at 6:00 AM on 11 April 2025. We encourage anyone attending the start of the competition to arrive at 5:00 AM, due to traffic and parking challenges. Some roads will be blocked off and spectators that arrive after 5:00 AM might experience problems and delays. All competitors and teams will be announced and there will be photo opportunities. The event will officially start with a Mass Run at the firing of our ceremonial starting pistols, beginning the three days of one of the world’s toughest competitions.
