Group Run - Catherine, Caribou and Black Mountains | Sunday August 24th - 8am


What: A beautiful single track trail loop over Catherine, Caribou and Black Mountains in the Donnell Pond Public Lands (just south of Tunk Mountain). Some great single track with lots of elevation and nice views (we're running it before the leaves come out). We run up and along the Catherine - Caribou - Black Mountain ridge with a significant drop down and climb back up between Black and Caribou mountains to complete the loop. The basic loop is about 10 miles with about 3,000 feet of elevation change l(see map below). Adding a drop down loop to Donnell Pond adds another couple of miles and significant elevation, and for anyone who wants a real challenge you can do a 16 miler by including Schoodic Mountain (4,200 ft elevation). Anyone doing the 10 or 16 mile loops should bring water/ hydration and some nutrition as you'll be out for several hours. 


  There are two basic loops possible with numerous variations to make them longer, or a bit shorter, particularly with out and backs:
