Independent P2P 50K details

The Independent P2P 50K followed the original Yuba Gold point-to-point route from South Yuba Campground to Bear Valley. This format allowed runners to complete the course independently and self-report results for a finisher award and ranking. The event materials stated the course had to be run continuously and results had to be submitted within one week of the event close; participants were given the month of October to complete the route. A GPX file for the course was provided by the organizer. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
