Salt Lake City is hoping that the inversion isn’t in town during next Saturday’s Fight for Air Climb in the Well Fargo Building. Over 400 people have signed up to climb the tower’s 598 stairs. It’s reminiscent of the annual Race to the Top of New York’s Empire State Building, except in the Salt Lake version you climb to the top as many times as you can. Last year a guy made the top-to-bottom trip 42 times. A mountaineer holds the top honor in NY, while a firefighter has the crown for SLC.
