According to event organizer Adrian Lambert, ",The course goes from Horseshoe Bay to Cypress Mountain on the Baden Powell Trail.
It's quite steep in some sections, and is, at times, a single track, alpine trail. I've been told it's an exciting, scenic, and enjoyable trail and I think it will be an excellent course for the NACAC Mountain Running Championships.",
