30 Miler: This route follows the 15 miler route out but swings a left at the first aid station and climbs up Brushy Mountain Fire Road up past the second aid station at the Buck Trail intersection to turnaround at the Hinchee Trail before doubling back to the start/finish line. This route includes 3,305 ft of elevation gain.
**All routes are closed to vehicles but trails will remain open to cyclists and hikers/runners.
