UltraTrax Cannon Mountain
UltraTrax Cannon Mountain is a timed walking and trekking event held in Franconia, New Hampshire. The route is a loop of approximately 7 miles with about 1,886 ft of elevation gain. Terrain includes wooded singletrack, rocky scramble sections, narrow ridgelines, fire roads, and varied surfaces that open to sweeping views over Franconia Notch and surrounding White Mountain peaks.
Participants choose how many loops to complete. Options let people cover multiple loops on the same course and carry optional weight in a vest or ruck. The course is marked with signage, arrows, tape, and staffed intersections. Volunteers and aid stations are present to support participants along the way. Timing is provided for each mile and the event uses a 10 hour cutoff to qualify for finisher recognition.
Finishers receive event items such as a commemorative patch and a finisher shirt. Participants who complete higher levels can earn the Grey Wolf medal. A base camp at the trailhead offers food, drinks, a post-trek celebration area with indoor and outdoor seating, and professional photos of the event. A portion of registration proceeds supports the Conservation Lands Foundation.
