The Pelican flight is a Big Air competition (jumping competition) that takes place at the so-called The Pelican Briefcase<\/b> (at the hotel complex\/lobby bar). The Pelican flight is more of a \u201dsession\u201d and folk festival than a strictly elite competition. The name comes from the classic \u201dPelican jump\u201d - a large snow jump that is built up just below the outdoor seating area, allowing the audience to sit with a drink in hand and watch the skiers fly by at close range.<\/p>\n
