This backcountry map highlights the conditional route, the landmarks along the way, checkpoints specific to the race, and avalanche hazards as well as outlines etiquette for training. Backcountry huts on this map include, Fritz Benedict, Barnard, Goodwin Green, Opa’s Taylor, Markely, Lindley, Tagert, and Friends. 1:48,000 | 40′ CONTOUR INTERVAL.
