Backcountry Trail Run - Camp Muir & Anvil Rock

This is a strenuous backcountry trail run on a well-trafficked but challenging route with nearly 5K feet in elevation gain over nearly 5 miles (up) and the reverse down. About half is on trail and half is on a snowfield (running gaiters recommended). We will go at a fast hike pace on the way up (~2 mph) and will consider glissading on the way down (conditions permitting). You should be comfortable "running" on snow and have evidence (e.g., Strava tracks) of cardio fitness for something like this -- leader's permission required, so please share this with the leader when registering.

The snowfield can be dangerous in poor weather conditions, so we will all be active participants in navigation decisions and will monitor weather and adjust plans accordingly as the date approaches. 

We'll meet at Paradise at 7:15am to get an early start, aiming to be running around 7:30am (specific directions will be sent ahead of the run).
