Elevation is on MY mind! As MSILSF's former Vice-President, Carl M. Hancock, Esq. so aptly opined today, this is going to be a roller-coaster race. When the route was revised, no consideration whatsoever was given to altitudes, or altitude changes. For those of you who raced Hell's Loop T.T. and thought the elevation changes were radical -- Baker Grade to Death Valley to Panamint Springs -- STAND BY! This is going to be one tough extreme endurance -- perhaps the MOST extreme MSILSF race to-date. Why, you ask? Take a look for yourself:
South Lake Tahoe, CA
Elevation: 6281 feet; Latitude: 38°.939926/Longitude: 119°.977186
