Mt. Wilson Trail Race - An 8.6 mile course, that begins and ends on pavement. In between it's a dirt path most of which ia no more than 3 feet wide.  Elevation gain of more than 2,100 feet.  Turnaround point is at Orchard Camp, 4.3 miles from race start.  Much of the race is on the Mt. Wilson Trail, with occasional vertical drop-offs of several hundred feet.  Emergency support is stationed along the course to provide aid, if needed.  Boy Scout and Cub Scout troops provide water at two locations, the 2.3 and the 4.3 (turnaround) mile marks.



I apologize if I get names wrong, I'm mostly working off the race results website to match a bib number with a name.  I can fix it if you let me know...

I've compressed and re-sized most of these for quicker downloads. However, I have larger images, higher resolution, if you want them to make a print or oversize picture.  A  picture where you appear to be just part of the picture can often be cropped to focus on you, as the second row of images demonstrate...Contact me to find out about purchasing higher resolution images/prints (usually $10 - $15).
