Nestled at an elevation of 2500 feet above sea level, this picturesque setting offers a unique mountain experience. The event is hosted by Alpine Lake Resort and features three distinct courses: Long, Medium, and Short.
The Long Course race will commence at 10:00 AM on the scenic trails around Alpine Lake Resort. For those seeking a slightly shorter challenge, the Medium Course kicks off an hour later at 11:00 AM. The Short Course provides an exhilarating 20-mile route starting at 12:00 PM.
