Course and logistics

The 50K and marathon routes follow Lake Superior shoreline sections, inland lakes and rivers, and the Giant Pines Trail with very old white pines. The half marathon is a loop that passes old growth white pine forest and a ridge on Clark Lake. All races finish at the Upper Tahquamenon Falls, with the Camp 33 Brew Pub about 200 meters from the finish.

Aid stations are vehicle-accessible and spaced about 4-7 miles apart. Runners are required to carry a 20 oz water bottle or functional hydration system for refilling. Bus transportation is provided to start locations for the 50K and marathon, and gear/drop bag handling is available at the start/finish area. Time limits are set for each distance.
