Wondering how steep the incline is on the two 1798' climbs in the 100miler?

Also, for folks that have done this previously: Would you recommend a Camelbak or just two water bottles?

Thanks!

The 100 mile route has nearly 10,000 feet of elevation gain. You can see full route maps with elevation charts on our website. You can zoom in and review the route. There will be spot on course where you can choose between the 50 and the 100 mile course before the full 100 mile course gets extremely hilly, so you will have a chance to opt out if you're not up for all the climbing.

Enjoy the ride!
