Trivium Racing is hosting a trail maintenance day & course preview run on the High Country Pathway.

Join us as we do volunteer trail maintenance work with Friends of the High Country Pathway on sections of the course and in other areas that need attention.  Then get in some training miles on the course you'll be running in October.

Runners, crew, and volunteers are all welcome.

Below is a tentative plan.  As of 7/27 we're still confirming what time we'll do trail maintenance work and how many people they need.  We're gauging interest with the sign-up.  If we have more people than they need, we'll either work in shorter shifts or just give you the opportunity to run on the course.

Option to camp at Tomawak Lake State Forest Campground.  Campfire, hangout, option for a short run.

Google Maps:  https://maps.app.goo.gl/9ht3TPZW8CJUtQbH9

DNR:  https://www.michigan.gov/recsearch/sfcampgroundsn-z/TomahawkLake

This is where the 100K starts.  The amenities listed on the DNR's website are accurate but the location is not.  We are camping at the campground listed on Google Maps as Tomahawk Lake State Forest Campground, at Tomahawk Lake, at Tomahawk Lake Highway and Shoepac Road.

Campgrounds are first come, first served, which means they don't take reservations.  Check-in starts at 3 p.m. and checkout is by 1 p.m.  These are rustic campgrounds; you can learn more about rules and amenities at the link above.  If there isn't enough space at Tomahawk Lake Campground there are two additional campgrounds nearby (Shoepac Lake State Forest Campground (.7 miles) and Tomahawk Creek Flooding State Forest Camground, (1.7 miles)).

If you'd prefer not to camp, Lyons Motel and Lodge is about a 16 minute drive from Tomahawk Lake State Forest Campground.

Trail Maintenance Day on High Country Pathway

We'll work with Friends of High Country Pathway on whatever needs fixing!  We'll share location information and timing as soon as we have it.  This will be relatively close to the campground.

Evening Trail Run on High Country Pathway

Supported trail run on the course!  We'll provide a GPX file, a group leader or two, and an aid station.  Call this a two-a-day; time on feet doing trail maintenance + a run.

There's a question in registration about how far you'd like to run on Saturday evening.  Once we get feedback we'll plan the route.

Option to camp another night

Trivium staff isn't guaranteed to be camping tonight, but you're welcome to if you want to get another run in on Sunday morning!
