This is the proposed course for the Cascadian National Marathon XC Championships. Actual mileage is closer to 40-45 as I had to hand draw a couple sections in the map.

Course: Start at Mission Ridge Ski Resort, Climb up past the Chairlifts to the Pipeline Trail and take Pipeline to Beehive Rd. Turn left on Beehive Rd. and follow it to the Tronsen Ridge Trailhead; continue on Tronsen Ridge Trail to Red Hill Trail; proceed on Red Hill Trail; turn left on on Devils Loop; complete Devils Loop and then turn right onto Devils Gulch Trail; Follow Devils Gulch to Devils Spur; turn right onto Squilchuck Rd and climb to the finish at Mission Ridge Ski Resort.

Many large trees down across upper trail, blocking trail between Tronson Ridge and Devils Gulch Junction. Lower Red Hill is clear and smooth but brushy in the clear cut area.
