THE COURSE

COURSE INFORMATION

DESCRIPTION

The course is a very scenic and challenging loop on a low-traffic single track that will test you with steep technical climbs and descents. The start will take you up to the Bonneville Shoreline Trail which will lead you to Trail of the Eagle — the first leg of the loop climbs 4,100' in 4 miles.

Once at the top, you will join the Bear Canyon traverse trail, a beautiful rolling section near the top of Bear Canyon with incredible scenery and views. Then you will join the top of Cherry Canyon Logging Trail to descend 4,100' in 4 miles on steep fast technical downhill back to the Bonneville Shoreline trail and the start/finish area.

COURSE MARKINGS

You will be following florescent pink ribbon with signage for critical turns and junctions. Keep an eye out for caution tape that marks the wrong direction — don't cross over them!

BEFORE YOU RUN

Rules & Etiquette

DNF / Drop From Race

If you need to drop from the race you must let an aid station volunteer know you will not finish. You can also have someone on your behalf come to the start/finish line and notify us that you have dropped.

Litter

Pack out what you pack in. We ask for your cooperation to ensure no littering on the course. We have worked hard with the US Forest Service to allow us to put the race on — please help us protect that privilege.
