SHUTTLE:
To coordinate transportation, a shuttle will run continuously prior to and after the race, as needed. The shuttle will start at 5:45 a.m. at the Hartman Interpretive Center parking lot, pick up at the entrance to the River Hills parking lot and the start site. Bikes cannot be carried on the shuttle. All equipment must be moved in the racer’s own vehicle. The shuttle will begin again after the awards ceremony and run as long as needed. Participants will be given shuttle priority over non-participants.

RACE START TO FINISH:
The race will start at the north shore of Alice Wyth Lake. The transition site between each stage of the race is at the Hartman River Access. The finish line is at Hartman's Interpretive Center. ________________________________
