Quintessential Alaska Adventure Running Series #5
Date: June 19, 21, 23-28, 2008

From the website:

“The purpose of this adventure series is to share in some classic Alaska backcountry explorations. The events are non-competitive and consist of about equal measures of running, power walking, and scrambling or bushwhacking. Travel is mainly off trail through extremely rugged backcountry. On each of the 6 days there is 5,000 to 15,000 feet of climbing and descent (that is, up to 30,000 feet of altitude change per day).”
