From the Organizer
This 10.6 mile point-to-point race runs through Lolo National Forest on rolling single-track trail alongside the Clark Fork River. After the race, runners will be shuttled to Quinn’s Hot Springs Resort to enjoy post race food, drinks, and soak in the hot pools. Each participant will receive a stylish 11 Miles to Paradise T-shirt, custom drop bag, bus shuttle to race start, chip timing, finisher award, and snacks at the finish line!
Please see the race website here for more detailed information.
Due to restrictions on the trails, shuttles, and at the hot springs, dogs are not allowed at this event.
