Welcome to Morrow Mountain State Park and the Naked Mountain Ultra!
Morrow Mountain is one of the highest peaks in the Uwharrie Mountains of central North Carolina.
These pinnacles are the remains of one of the oldest mountain ranges in the eastern United States.
The park houses 32 miles of beautiful trail and you are about to become well acquainted with the majority of them.
Prepare yourself to be challenged as this course will traverse you up four of the park's mountain peaks and looping the park.
