Course, aid and race logistics
The 50 km course uses west coast rainforest singletrack and gravel service roads, with roots, rocks, mud and some smoother trail. The route traverses the Diez Vistas ridge and sections around Buntzen Lake, and starts and finishes at Sasamat Lake. Total ascent and descent are each about 2000 m (about 6500 ft).
Aid stations are located at several points on course, including water-only AS1 and full stations at AS2, AS3, AS4, AS5 and AS6. AS3, AS4 and AS5 have cutoff times; runners who arrive after those cutoffs are recorded as DNF and offered a ride back. One labelled drop bag (shoebox size recommended) is accepted and will be delivered to AS3. Disposable cups are not provided on course. There is no mandatory gear list. Poles, pacers and pets are not permitted on course; leashed dogs are allowed only where crew is permitted, and not at the start-finish. Post-race food includes sushi and BBQ; participants are asked to provide their own cup, plate and utensils. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
