Course and logistics

Both the 5-mile and 10-mile courses are out-and-back routes that use part of the Hellgate 100k course (miles 55-60), the section called the Forever Section on the Glenwood Horse Trail between Day Creek Day Use Area and Bobblets Gap Road. The trail is described as a rocky backcountry section. The 5 miler will have a volunteer or timing point at the halfway point; the 10 miler will have a timing point at Bobblets Gap Road to verify the turnaround.

Packet pickup is scheduled on the days before the race and on race day at the Day Creek Day Use Area. A course briefing will be held on race day. Additional event information is available from the race organizers. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
