Diamond Ridge, looking into Victor Creek drainage, 2014 IMTUF.

2014 IMTUF, Victor Creek Trail, looking towards the Warren Wagon Road side.  We call this section the "Whispering Woods."  Spooky place in a wind storm.

Marking IMTUF, Loon Lake Loop section with then Payette Nat. Forest Supervisor Keith Lannom.  A longtime McClassic Vet.  I think he's done all of them over the years.  Already registered for 30K in July 2023!

Old mining implements in the hills above Burgdorf.

Crossing beautiful Lake Creek near the start/finsih area.  This is the sensitive, pristine headwaters of the North Fork of the Payette River and makes it critical that we run a low impact event.

Coming back to the truck after a long run on Bear Pete to see that a bear has tried to enter.

Katie being Katie, somewhere.

You never know what you will see in the hills above Burgdorf.

This shows the Chinook Campground Aid Station location (50 Mile, mile 19.0).  Come in from the trail on left. Exit the pic to the right of the big sign, crossing a big bridge.  Aid Station set up by the big sign.
