Trail Conditions: Be prepared for ice on trails and wooden bridges throughout the course. Use of traction is at the racer's discretion.

Toilets: Portable toilets available at the start/finish line.
Trail Ettiquette: No litter, cutting corners/switchbacks, or off-trail travel. Any of these activities may result in disqualification.
