What is the elevation drop from the top of the mens downhill to the finish line

What is the length of the course and the elevation drop. I teach high geometry and I want to give my students some problems based on the Vancouver Olympics. I would like the same information for the womens downhill as well.
Tip for best answer: M$0.25

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.
