..........Eight notes regarding changes to registration from previous years........
0. We are asking about mode of travel mostly to better prepare the courses and bib planning process. We are not separating skiers, biker, and runners in timing. Yes, this means, 12 Hour skiers are in the same category as anyone biking or running or doing a combo of all three for 12 hours.
1. To simplify while adding the new modes of travel, there are no separate mens/womens/mixed/junior/family divisions, just time based categories of 3, 6, 12, or 24 Hour. Our intention is to add some healthy competition and simplify. We are all in this together. The prizes all go by raffle, not place.
2. Entry fees...trying to keep them reasonable for thin budgets while also making ends meet. This year the Rendezvous Trail pass is a separate cost. (Get a season pass for $40, best ski pass deal in the country!) If the registration fee seems steep for you, volunteer or sign up early. What other 24 Hour race can you enter for $25?
3. The online registration is top notch this year. No junky ads or hassling emails. It cost a few bucks and is worth it.
4. The entry fee pays for: aid station from ClifBar and Bozeman Food Coop, on site waxing service from Toko, onsite ski demo from Madshus, hotel discount at Holiday Inn and Greywolf, 24 hours of timing, about 300 hours of prep/organization time, tons of prizes including a 9:zero:7 Snow Bike frame, a pair of Madshus Skis, and goodies from Patagonia, Toko, Red Ants Pants, tons of local shops, .....and a helluva good time.
5. While divisions are consolidated, there have been requests for a "Nightowl" category. This is an option for 12 Hour participants who want to start at 10pm on the 24th and finish with the 24 Hour folks at 10 am on the 25th. Thought we would give it a try.
6. Junior fees now apply to all under 21 years of age.
7. Under 12 race for free!

Athlete360 has a simple, secure and easy process with no advertising, no email spam, and no gimmicks. We like it. The processing fee is $1 plus 5% which ends up adding around $4 to an adult registration with a trail pass. The fee is paid by the entrant. You can buy a one day Forest Service Trail pass here also.
