Course and format
Racing starts from the ski lodge at the base of the mountain. The course uses two named sides of the mountain: Holt’s side and Winslow side. The 5K course runs Holt’s side only. The 10K course combines both Holt’s and Winslow sides. The 9-hour event requires repeating the full 10K loop; runners receive a 10K medal after the first lap, a specialty pin for each additional lap, and a 50K medal upon reaching 50K.
There is an indoor area at the lodge where runners can leave a drop bag. Laps are recorded on a board in the pit area and each runner must mark time in and out. A lap only counts when the runner crosses the official finish line. If two runners complete the same number of laps, finishing time is used as the tie breaker for placement.
