Taking in the beautiful views and surroundings of Tombstone National Park and the Ogilvie Mountains, this race is not for the faint hearted, the Yukon Edition will take competitors over 12000 feet of elevation gain (for the 250 race) through Arctic conditions. The first two days (first 50 miles) are all about climb! Serious ups and generous downs throughout the race.
The race starts at the very beginning of the Dempster and ends at Engineer Creek for the 120 mile race and on the 6633 parallel, or the Arctic Circle, for the 250 mile race.
Check points will be heated trailer or heated large tents with the exception of CP5 which will be in Eagle Plains
