Race Guide

The 2024 Racer Guide is available.  Please read it and make sure you are familiar with all the information it contains. Additionally, Aid Station Menus are available for preview.

Crew Driving Instructions

Please note that there is no overnight parking at ANY aid station.  No camping in vehicles is permitted in parking areas or along roadways including the finish line area.  If you wish to camp, please do so in designated campgrounds. Failure to respect this jeopardizes our ability to secure permits in the future, and thus is grounds for potential disqualification of you or your racer. Please respect the policy of one crew vehicle per racer, and have your vehicle dashboard sign (given to racers at package pick-up) in place.  Due to limited space, please no RV's or trailers at start line or aid station locations.

 

120 Mile Start Line

UPDATE - no crew at the start line due to wildfire access needing the Pasayten FSR.  All racers MUST take the shuttle bus from Manning Park Resort.  Sign up at Package Pick-up
