Piker’s Peak

Set in the Swiss Alps on the Schmatterhorn, the mountain town hosts a mayor-initiated climb-off with a prize of 50,000 kronkites. A festive crowd, marching band, and cheers accompany the start as contestants begin their ascent. The rugged, snowbound slopes provide opportunities for slapstick, misdirection, and dramatic stunts.

🔥 Rivalry

A boisterous competition between Bugs Bunny and Yosemite Sam drives the plot, pushing both to outsmart the other in increasingly risky stunts. Their rivalry combines pride, bragging, and slapstick teamwork, keeping the audience engaged as the mountain course becomes a stage for pranks. The contest reveals how competition can bring out both cleverness and stubbornness in equal measure.

🎭 Deception

The pair engages in a series of double-crosses and tricks, including tampering with ropes and boulders to hinder the other. The gags hinge on misdirection and comic timing rather than serious danger, highlighting Bugs' wit against Sam's hot-headed schemes. Each ruse escalates the physical comedy until the final reveal on the tower.

🏔️ Adventure

The ascent turns into an adventure through extreme elevation, narrow ledges, and the constant threat of avalanches or falling rocks. The environment shapes the humor as the crowd and band accompany the chase with persistent music. The climactic twist on an iconic tower recontextualizes the chase as a playful, surreal finale.
