Pack this
- Headlamp + spare with fresh batteries (multi-night running)
- Waterproof jacket, warm layer, hat, gloves for alpine nights

- Drop bags with shoe changes, socks, chamois cream, fuel restock
- 2x 500ml soft flasks + electrolyte tabs and salt caps
What you should know
- Course tops out near 9,000ft (2,750m); arrive 3-5 days early to acclimatize and watch for altitude sickness symptoms.
- Expect overnight temps near freezing at altitude despite sunny 20°C days — hypothermia is the leading drop reason.
- Mandatory gear is checked at aid stations; missing items (jacket, headlamp, whistle, cup) can mean disqualification.
- Sleep strategy matters: plan crew/sleep stops at major aid stations; pacers typically allowed after a designated mile.
- Cutoffs are enforced at every aid station over ~100 hours total; know your splits and drop-bag locations in advance.
