Description:

1. The Hare Mountain 100 is a point-to-point 100 mile run, that incorporates 2 scenic spur loops, along the Ozark Highlands Trail in the Northwestern part of Arkansas across the Boston Mountain segment. Hare Mountain is the highest point on the OHT at nearly 2400 feet. This segment covers 164 miles of rocky, steep and rugged forest with several creek crossings, waterfalls, bluffs and beautiful sandstone outcrops. I’m utilizing 100 miles of the most difficult sections of this segment. If 100 miles is too far, try the point-to-point 50 mile and 100k. The start is the the same time and place as the 100. The 50 mile will finish at Indian Creek TH and it will have over 10,000 feet of elevation gain with a 16 hour cutoff. The 100k will finish at Redding CG and have over 12,000 feet of elevation gain with a 20 hour cutoff.
   Being born and raised in Cass, AR I grew up on the OHT. Spending hours of my life on the trail running, hiking, exploring. It has been a dream of mine since I got back into ultrarunning to bring a 100 mile race to this amazing place.
   Runners must sign a waiver, perform 8 hours of trail work (trail work used for another race is fine), or opt out of trail work for a $100 donation to the Ozark Highlands Trail Association in order to participate in this event. It is preferable that you complete the trail work on the OHT if possible, especially the most remote and neglected areas.
   Part of the proceeds will support local animal shelters.
