Cut-Off Times and DNFs

If you do not expect to make these cut offs, please choose a shorter event. Cut off times are essential to re-open roads in a timely fashion and maintain good community relationships. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

Cut-Off Times

12:20 - Kinnunen Aid Station (approx 7k)
1:15 - River House Aid Station (approx 19K/4.5K)
2:10 - City Garage Aid Station (25/10.5K)
3:00 - “Finnish” Line

Racers will not be allowed to continue after these cut-off times. Race officials will collect your bib and you will not receive a finishing time. We will transport you back to the “Finnish” Line. Ski Patrol course marshals will follow the last skier.

Dropouts

Individuals who are not able to complete the course for whatever reason must inform the volunteers at an aid station or at the ‘Finnish’ line and provide them with their bib and name.  Transportation back to the “Finnish Line” will be provided by the shuttle bus.
