Aid Stations

• Traudl will try to provide everything participants may want.

• We will have at least:

  • Drinks: Tea, coffee, Coke, , Gatorade, juice, water

  • Food: Soup, some warm food, cheese/turkey/peanut butter/jelly-sandwiches, pretzels, cookies, cake

• Please let us know before the start if you have special needs.

• The "Montezuma Inn" in Montezuma will be open just for us. We will give them $10 per participant. Crews please pay.

• In Empire we will be at Jenny's Restaurant. Whatever you need a few miles before the finish - take it, we'll pay for it.

• Before you get to an aid station think about what you want to do/take/change there.

• An aid station may be missing. Mudslides, etc. may make it impossible  to get there for Traudl and the crews. Be prepared to walk on.

• Carl will try to provide additional aid stations in remote areas - depending on accessibility. Don't count on it - just be happy and thankful whenever he can meet us.

• Take enough to dress for the next section. The weather may change or it's getting dark (flashlights!) before we reach another aid station.

• Because of severe weather resulting in course changes, as well as for other reasons, the location of aid stations may change.

Crews

• Crews are mandatory.

• Crews have to bring their own food/drinks.

• Crews will have the drop bags of "their" participant.

• Not accessible by passenger cars (without 4-wheel drive): Jones Pass aid station (with a strong car it's reachable) and Bobtail aid station. A crew without a 4-wheel drive vehicle may get there (the last miles) by going with someone else.

• Crews may join the team on the last day (Alice - James Peak - Alice - Finish) for sections of the course.
