Fire On The Mountain 50K Trail Race

The Fire on the Mountain 50K Trail Race, held in Little Orleans, Maryland within Green Ridge State Forest, offers challenging distances of 50K (about 31.95 miles) and 25K (approximately 16.3 miles). The 50K is an out-and-back course featuring seven aid stations, including a midway "oasis," with a 10-hour cutoff time. The 25K includes technical trail sections with roots, rocks, and narrow "billy goat" paths, plus forest service and dirt roads, supported by three aid stations and a 4 hour 45 minute cutoff.

The race emphasizes rugged terrain and endurance, with finisher premiums awarded to those completing within cutoff times. Training runs and volunteer opportunities enhance the community atmosphere. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
