I'm going to be attempting to set the FKT on this trail on June 27th, 2020. Beautiful trail that I'm excited to run.

I'm planning to go for this on August 1. Thanks for the inspiration Bryson!

Love this trail! Going after this FKT tomorrow 9/16/2020! Should be a fun time!

Going for the unsupported FKT tomorrow!

I will be attempting to establish the Male Unsupported FKT tomorrow! Can’t wait to see the trail

Looks fun. Gonna go for unsupported for this on my bday next week. Hopefully there is ample water on the route, and I don't forget the little odd out and back to Cascade Falls.

will have to add a few miles on at the end - 35 miles for 35 years!

The GPX seems to have some odd little excursions that whoever created it took, a little jaunt off trail, plus a convoluted ending that went out to Strawberry Point and back. I'm going to follow the instructions in the description - end at the bathroom near Strawberry point
