6K: Figure eight course on jeep road and single track trail in and above Longview Canyon. It is 4 miles in length with close to 900′ of climbing.
12K: This is a daisy chain type course. The first mile and a half follows the 6K course then continues to climb up to Kings Canyon and then to the new Lincoln Bypass Trail. Here is where it connects with the 30K and 22K courses heading downhill on Lincoln Bypass and Longview Canyon trail to the finish. The 12K(8 mile) is composed of half jeep road and half single track trail with 1600′ of climbing.
22K: The first 1.5 miles of the course are on pavement.
