Course description:
A 9.59 course consisting of a northern loop on the Blue Trail with extensions on the Mountain Mist Trail and the Sinks Trail (~4.00 miles), and a southern loop on the White Trail and various single-track bike trails between the Hiker's Parking Lot and O'Shaughnessy Point (~5.59 miles). The course has been rolled with a wheel, so the distances should be fairly accurate.
The northern loop is the hillier of the two, with one long downhill section, and one long uphill section. Elevation data will be available later, but this is nothing like the Mountain Mist - very much flatter / easier! I have been told by Joe Kallo that the total elevation gain for the 9.59 mile loop is 700 feet.
The southern loop is extremely flat, following the White Trail and a number of the new bike trails that have been cut in the area inside the White Trail loop.
The southern loop has 0.3 miles of paved road, 0.75 miles of fine gravel / dirt road, and the rest is dirt trails with a lot of it being single-track trails. The northern loop has two sections of paved road totaling 0.2 miles, 0.1 miles of small gravel footpath, and the rest is dirt trails, with the majority being single-track trails.
A little loop, run before the first big loop only, is 2.3 miles long, with the first 0.1 miles on pavement, the last 0.1 miles on gravel, and the remainder on dirt trails.
