Then the course quickly descends to North Canyon Road and connecting with Marlette Lake Trail to Marlette Lake. From Marlette Lake, the course climbs again to the Hobart Aid Station location and the Tahoe Rim Trail. Runner will do the Marlette Peak loop back to Hobart A/S, then descend down Sunflower Hill Trail, past the Red House and continuing along Tanks Road to Secret Trail. At the end of Secret Trail the course connects with vice Canyon Trail back to WNC and the finish. Modifications to this course will depend on snow conditions and will be anywhere from 22-26 miles with lots of vertical. This will be a great day out on some great trail and to preview the TRT course.
