Event Details

Start Location: Burnt Hollow Block Waterbury Trailhead (Hunger Mountain Parking Area) Check-in Time: 7:00 AM- 8:00 AM Start: 8:00 AM Emergency: Waterbury Ambulance Service, Inc. (802) 244-5003; 9-11/Cell Service throughout course. Trail Stewardship: Be extra friendly to hikers and walkers! Say Hi. Then, Leave No Trace; Pack in/Pack out. Details: This is a fat ass trail run. That means you are on your own to complete the route. There will be no flagging or aid stations. Be prepared for your day. The complete route is approximately 13 miles with 4,000 feet of climbing. Green Mountain Club Map- Mt. Mansfield and the Worcester Range covers the entirety of the course. It’s recommended to have this. Be prepared for weather in October in Vermont. Last year, October 13 had a solid frost on the summit of Mt. Hunger. Suggestions are to pack a hat, gloves, layers, shell, emergency blanket, headlamp, map, cell phone. Parking: Limited space so carpool if possible.

Fun stuff: This route has it all: Vermont dirt roads, 0.25 mile of pavement, steep climbs, views, kush trails, mud, alpine summits, and awesome high fives. Extra points in a zero point scale system if Sampson & Baylor, legendary golden retrievers, follow you up Stowe Pinnacle Trail.
