The 10th annual fund- and awareness-raising event, Survivors at the Summit, to benefit the Cancer Wellness House will be Saturday at Snowbird.
The event includes a pancake breakfast on the Snowbird Center Plaza Deck Saturday morning, followed by a hike or Tram ride to Hidden Peak.
The 3.5-mile hike represents the challenges that people of all ages with all kinds of cancer face. People whose lives have been touched by the disease will be honored by a sea of yellow flags bearing their names high atop Hidden Peak during the Celebration of Life ceremony.
The Cancer Wellness House is a non-profit organization providing free resources to anyone whose life has been affected by cancer.
The pancake breakfast is $3 per person. There will also be a raffle, with all proceeds going to the Cancer Wellness House. To access the pancake breakfast and Hidden Peak hike take Little Cottonwood Road to Snowbird's Entry 2.
