We've also changed the route for a lot of the first half. We've gotten rid of the Camp Sheppard Aid Station and we've got two new stations, Palisades at mile 10.3 and Corral at mile 18.7. The start/finish will be at the same location as last year (basically at the far end of the Buck Creek Rec Area near the south end of the Ranger Creek Airstrip). We've made a few changes to the first "half" of the 50M course. The 50K course follows the 50M course for the first 29.5 miles, doing the whole first "half" of the 50M course and then starting up the Sun Top Trail for a mile and a half before turning around and running back to the finish at Buck Creek Recreation Area. **Even though the cut off is technically at 8:30PM any runner who makes it out of the last aid station by the cutoff there and then completes the course will get an official finish even if they arrive after 8pm. 6:30 pm: Cut off at Skookum Flats, mile 43 (50M only).5:00 pm: Cut off at Sun Top, mile 36.5 (50M only).3:00 pm: Cut off at Fawn Ridge, mile 31.2 (50M only). 2:00 pm: Cut off at Buck Creek, mile 28.1 (50M only, no cutoff here for the 50K).Noon: Cut off at Corral Aid Station mile 18.7 (50M & 50K).9:30 am: Cut off at Palisades Aid Station mile 10.3 (50M & 50K).5:45 deadline to drop of your drop bags at the start/finish.5:30 am: Early Start (only for those who think they'll need the extra time to stay ahead of the cutoff times).5:00 to 5:45am: Bib & shirt pickup/check-in at Buck Creek Campground.At this time we are not planning on doing the traditional pre-race meeting/dinner.We encourage folks to come and camp out with us at the start/finish for the whole weekend, this area has been super popular lately with the general public so we recommend arriving early to get your spot.
