About this race

This race uses part of the Hellgate 100k course (miles 55-60) and is known as the Forever Section.  It's a tough rocky backcountry section of the Glenwood Horse Trail that goes between Day Creek Day Use Area to Bobblets Gap Road.  Both courses will be out and back.  The 5 miler will have a volunteer or timing point at the halfway point and the 10 miler will have a timing point at Bobblets Gap Road to verify that you made it all the way to the turnaround.
