Allegheny 100 Challenge

[partly cloudy]

Once again, the NCT in the ANF will hold it's A-100 Challenge. This is a personal challenge to hike 100 miles of the NCT in 50 hours, unsupported. There are shorter challenges available, 25 and 50 miles. June 8 thru 10, 2012.

This year, we will be starting at the southern terminus of the ANF section and going north. The starting point is the Pa. Rt 66 trailhead, 6 miles south of Marienville and 1.2 miles north of Vowinkle. ( N41 25.149 W79 12.639 ) Pre-registration is required for a t-shirt and shuttle from your vehicle at your end point. Pre-registration will end 1 week before the start, but, you can register at the start point up to the time the challenge begins, 6 PM. Late registration does NOT insure a shuttle or t-shirt.

For more information and registration, go to www.northcountrytrail.org > Get involved > Calender of Events > June 8. Or e-mail for info only,, nct001@verizon.net
