Hare Mountain 100 : October 23-24, 2026, Hagarville, AR
The Hare Mountain 100 is a point-to-point ultramarathon on the Ozark Highlands Trail in the Boston Mountains segment. The event uses about 100 miles of rugged singletrack that includes two scenic spur loops and finishes at Shores Lake Recreation Area. The course passes creeks, waterfalls, bluffs and sandstone outcrops, and reaches Hare Mountain, the highest point on the OHT at about 2400 ft. Organizers report measured elevation gain for the 100 mile distance between 20,000 and 24,400 feet. There are 13 aid stations and sometimes long gaps of 4-12 miles between major aid stations. Runners are required to carry a satellite GPS tracking device and have the course GPX file available; tracking and live aid-station times are provided via satellite systems.
