H9 Dragon - Vogel State Park
H9 Dragon is a club-run trail event held at Vogel State Park near Blairsville, GA. The event continues the traditional H9 course along the Duncan Ridge and has been renamed H9 Dragon while keeping the same general route.
Distances offered:
- 50 Miler
- Marathon
Participation requires membership in the H9 trail club; membership registration is managed separately from event entry. The event is organized as a non-profit club activity and follows Forest Service rules for use of the Duncan Ridge area.
Entry fees are intended to cover award medals, a t-shirt, site rental, food, and day-use logistical support. Organizers note a modest fee increase to cover rising costs; labor and some equipment use are donated. Finisher medals are fabricated locally from stainless steel and are laser cut, which increases production cost.
Registration for the event is open and closes on Sat, Jul 4 at 11:59 PM ET. The organizer has indicated the possibility of additional H9 events in the future depending on interest. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
