Spectator Shuttle Buses to the Finish Line
Absolutely NO Parking at the Finish Line
We have hired shuttle buses so spectators can safely and easily access the finish area to cheer on their runners. Spectator shuttle buses will load at Hyak Sno-Park (race start).
Please note:
- Shuttle buses drop spectators off at the bottom of the Forest Service Road
- Spectators must then walk approximately one mile uphill to the finish area
- The final 1/4 mile is steep, so please plan accordingly
