Event
The Cabin Fever 50 K is a winter point-to-point ultramarathon in New River Gorge National Park. The course runs from downtown Fayetteville to Hawks Nest State Park. The route includes high ridgeline single-track, waterfall sections, and a descent to the New River beneath the New River Gorge Bridge. The course shares much of the Rim to River 100 route. The event is scheduled for February 21 and has a 10-hour time limit for completion.
Course support and logistics
The course is supported by three fully stocked aid stations and one hydration station. All finishers who complete the course within the allotted time receive a custom Cabin Fever 50K finisher medal. Awards are given to the Top 10 male and Top 10 female finishers. Check-in and packet pickup are available the day before and the morning of the race at local ACE Adventure locations in Fayetteville. A shuttle from the finish back to the start is offered; participants must register for the shuttle by February 13. Participants who register by December 21 receive a race shirt; 100% refunds are offered until December 21. Proceeds support Adventure Appalachia, a nonprofit focused on outdoor programs in the New River Gorge region. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
