Weekend Information

The point is to have fun

Detailed weekend email will be emailed to runners the week of the race

As the race is a point to point, we will be shuttling runners from the finish line to the start via buses (5 minute ride). No parking, spectators, or runner drop off is allowed at the start line. The start line is our little private celebration before diving into the pain cave! Your bib will be your ticket on for a bus ride. We will have an option to bring a small drop-bag with you to the start, which will be transported back to the finish line.

Parking All parking will be at the Mt. Judah Lodge parking lots at Sugar Bowl and will be clearly marked. Click HERE to see the parking lot in Google Maps.

Bib Pickup is Friday, July 25th at Tahoe Mountain Sports in Truckee from 12PM to 5:30PM, or from 5:30AM - 6:30AM at the Mt. Judah Lodge on race morning. You must have your bib to get on the shuttle bus. We encourage all runners who are able to pick up their bib on Friday to do so, to reduce race morning congestion.

Race Start Time is 7AM sharp. Buses will begin running at 6AM and runners who get on the buses early will be rewarded with extra tickets for the raffle. There will be limited bathroom access at the start, so use the porta-potties at the finish area before getting on the bus.

Aid Station We will have one single aid station at approximately mile 6 of the race with Naak nutrition, water, and basic aid station food including watermelon, pretzels, PB&J’s, and candy. We recommend carrying hydration and snacks with you since there is only one aid station on the course and the route has lots of sun exposure and plenty of climbing.

Race Photos will be included in your entry fee. We’ll have photographers throughout the course to get shots of you on various peaks and course points, available for download the week after the race.

Finisher Item Custom Mountain Tiger Performance Trucker Hat + a pair of Darn Tough socks. Socks will be given at packet pickup and hats will be given at the finish line.

Awards we have some great podium awards by gender, as well as a SICK batch of raffle awards that all runners are qualified to win, with prizes from The North Face, Pit Viper, CAPiTA, Atomic, Naak, Arctery’x, Suunto, and more.

Finish Line Village Retail gives you the chance to shop from local businesses, race sponsors, hit the Ascent Tahoe recovery tent and some limited Mountain Tiger merch.

Finish Food Buckhorn BBQ will be there with their food truck offering Tri Tip sandwiches and sides to purchase, and Drink Coffee Do Stuff will have tasty cold brew.

Race Tattoos - Our friends from Snowy Mountain Tattoo in Truckee will be on site giving free (tips encouraged!) race tattoos to finishers. First come first served!
