Course and race details
The course is primarily wide, hard-packed dirt trail that loops around the Trapp Family Lodge trail system at the foot of Mount Mansfield. It passes highland pastures and hardwood forest and crosses areas with maple sugar tap lines. Each 25K loop contains about 2,500 ft of ascent and 2,500 ft of descent, for roughly 5,000 ft total gain and loss on the 50K.
There are three aid stations located at miles 4.6, 9.4, and the start/finish area; 25K runners will access two while on course. The race is cup-free. A designated area at the start/finish will hold 50K drop bags. Cattle may occupy fenced sections of the property at times; those areas should not be entered. Prize awards are planned for 1st to 3rd overall male and female finishers; no cash prizes will be awarded. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
