Course and format
Distances and options:
- 12 Hour endurance event
- 6 Hour endurance event
- Fun Run - one lap
The marked lap is 4.167 miles. The course is a trail loop with a summit that reaches about a 25% to 30% grade. There are creek crossings that are usually hop-able, occasional fallen trees, and rooty, rocky technical sections near the top. Runners complete repeated laps for the duration they entered (6 or 12 hours); fun runners run a single lap. Total time for all laps is calculated and the winner is the entrant with the fastest pace / lowest total time with no missed laps. Participants are expected to bring their own nutrition and hydration; limited electrolytes and backup nutrition will be available. The site is shared with the DNR and attendance is controlled to limit traffic. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
