Corse Description This 13.1 mile course starts and finishes at the Inn of the 7th Mountain. With the exception of the parking area at the Inn itself the course is all dirt. The course is made up of single track and dirt roads. Hills are of course on tap for this race. The first half is largely dirt roads with lots of room for passing. At the top of the climb you get a break with your second aid station and some sweet singltrack descending back towards the Inn of the Seventh. I won’t say it is all downhill back to the in but minus a surprise or two it is a negative split for sure. I think the course is best summed up by last years winner Max King who said when asked what he thought of the course he simply replied “tough”.
Carpool As always parking is at a premium so please carpool if you can.



Does anyone have a map of the course for training purposes. If you can post it to this site I would greatly appreciate it. Cheers to all.
