Welcome to 2020!
UPDATE FRIDAY 1/3 – direct from the RD, the race distance will be 10k, by Sunday morning the surface should be a firm base with some fluff on top.
Looking at the map Mike sent along, it looks like it’s possible to bail at about 4 miles if you don’t feel up to the full 10k – note that only the full 10k will be timed and counted toward series points.
***************************************************************
RD Mike Owens says the conditions are looking favorable for Sunday’s Get Rec’d at the Town of Stratton Recreation Area. He’s planning to get the course finalized today and once he has an official distance it will be posted.
All the race info can be found here (including GPS coordinates and a googlemaps link for the race site.) Printing and filling out a registration form ahead of time will save time on race morning. Note that registration is cash only and that this is a “primitive” site – the only amenities are a small open shelter, an outhouse, and the positive attitudes of your fellow snowshoers.
Keep an eye out for updates over the next couple of days.
