We’re changing it up for 2021 and offering two new courses for Sunday’s race. While Saturday’s Classic Growler race remains the same, we’re replacing the grueling two lap, 64 mile Growler with two new options – The Pup 20 and Big Bad 40. The Pup is a 20 mile race course that’s our answer to those looking to experience the amazing trails at Hartman Rocks without suffering through the 32 mile course. A little shorter on distance but no shortage of sweet trail. For those looking for a bigger challenge, the Big Bad 40 course features the Aberdeen trails for the first time in Growler history. The Aberdeen trails make an 8 mile loop from the bottom of Skull Pass, crossing the icy Beaver Creek into Hartmans southern backcountry. We’ve wanted to feature this loop in the Growler for years, and we’re excited to finally have the chance.
