Course
The 25 km course runs a 10 km and a 15 km loop, set along the Kootenay and Cross Rivers. The 15km loop is the Kootenay Krusher trail on the south network. The 10 km loop runs on the north network. The 5 km and 2.5 km loops incorporate some singletrack and stay very close to the meadow area.
The trails are part of the Cross River Canyon Recreation Site.
Register
Sign up for the event through Zone 4.
Results
We use hand-timing instead of chip, so when big groups come in timing is not completely accurate.
