Race Summary

Known as the year of the big snow, nearly 18 inches fell throughout Thursday and Friday. Access to food stations and parking areas were re-plowed and the trail groomers worked tirelessly to make the best possible trail conditions.

Temperatures hovered around 10 degrees below zero at the start on Saturday morning.
