The route description notes a start area between Ranch Road and Cumpresso Road, runs along Cumpresso and Rangers Landing Road to the Big Foot BSA campsite near 3 miles, then returns to join the Florida Trail. The course crosses Cumpresso and Ranch roads, follows Cedar Pocket Road and a fire berm loop (mile 9 to 11), and finishes via a grass horse trail and open-field loops back to Ranch Road.
