Important update for TRTER 100 Mile and 100K
Due to Marlette Dam reconstruction and Flume pipe replacement projects TRTER is not able to operate and set up infrastructure in order to fully operate in the Spooner Backcountry. Therefore we are unable to host the 100 Mile, 100K in 2025.
But Wait, We will be offering a 50K and 14 Mile!!!
We will be hosting the 50k mostly the same course as the scheduled 50K. The difference will be the loop around Marlette Peak. The start will be the same from the John L Harvey Baseball stadium at Western Nevada College and up Ash Canyon road to Snow Valley Peak. Down the Tahoe Rim Trail to the Laxault intersection and jump onto the Capital 2 Tahoe Trail to the Waterfall aid station and back down Ash Canyon trail to the baseball stadium for a big fun finish line party at the famous Ultra Lounge.
Mileage should come in very close to 30 miles. There will be two aid stations with only water and EFS electrolyte drink, and two full service aid stations approximately at mile 8 and mile 16 (Hobart 2.0) and mile 23 waterfall aid station. Then a seven mile push to the finish.
We will also be offering a shorter out-n-back 14 mile race from the baseball stadium up the Ash Canyon trail to the Waterfall aid station and back to the finish for the big finish line party.
Important note to consider on the 50K! Locations for the two main aid stations are in very remote, very difficult aid stations to get to. There can be no drops at all! If you feel the big 4200 ft climb at the start is going to be a huge challenge, I highly recommend doing the 14 mile option this year. The cutoff will be 10 hours. We will also have a 2 hour cutoff at the Kick Ash aid station at 3.5 miles. You will be turned around if not there by then. Please respect the 10 hour cutoff. If your intention is to hike most of the course, please respect us and enter the 14 mile. Be done early and have a good time at the finish.
The finish Line Ultra Lounge will be a big trail running party, with foot baths, food truck, The Fox brewery beer, Hoch Family Creamery ice cream and EV and the Electric Soup for live music entertainment.
Special pricing for this years event!
Pricing for this years race have been reduced to $130 for the 50K and $75 for the 14 mile.
Credit cards will be charged upon registration. Refunds minus $30 admin fee will have a cutoff of May1st. There will be no refunds after this date. And we do not offer deferrals to next year.
