Course and race format
The course description is the same for both distances. The marathon course includes 5,883 feet of elevation gain. The route is almost entirely mountain trail and fire break roads, with only a few asphalt crossings at lower elevations. There are technical sections of ascent and descent and areas that offer scenic views. Participants may encounter snow, rain, mud, potential stream crossings, and rocky terrain.
Runners must know the course, run with someone who knows it, or be able to follow the course description or GPX maps. There will not be porta-johns, mile markers, spectators, or volunteers providing directional guidance. The course should be treated like an ultra-distance race.
