Course Overview
General DWD Course Information: The footing (What footing?) is rocky, muddy (a few river crossings) and loose in places. The trail is not maintained (non-existent) in some areas. We love this stuff and hope you do too.
Is the trail as tough as advertised? Yes and No. It’s no run down a nature trail (but at times it is just that), you will get wet and muddy. You won’t get swept down stream in any whitewater. Some big hills but no supplemental oxygen is needed. Our descriptions are a disclaimer. All in all, a great run in a beautiful environment...with stupid spots.

30K/50K/50M RACE INFO - CLICK HERE
The 50 Mile, 50K, and 30K ultra events are on Pure Michigan, runnable single track, gnarly trails! Expect to be scratched, muddied and bruised by the beauty of this unpolished gem. Take yourself to the edge where life is full color... and dirty.
Relay
The 55M Relay has lots of great, honest trail running, laced with off trail Hell, dished up by mother nature.
Back for 2025, you can choose your team type. Go for it all with an IN IT TO WIN IT team of up to 5 people, or soak in the experience with a JUST FOR FUN team of up to 10 people. Either way it's time to grab some friends and drag them to Hell! No late Relay entry so get on it!
