Come experience beautiful St. Croix State Park and the scenic Kettle River valley! The Fire Tower Trail Races will take you on an adventure through forests and over hills as you complete one of four distances: 100K, 50K, 35K, 11K. When you choose to conquer the 50K or longer, you will test your stamina as you climb to the top of the historic fire tower mid-run (twice in the 100K). Discover Minnesota’s largest State Park and explore your limits at the Fire Tower Trail Races.
Oh, and we’ll have a “vertigo option” for folks that can’t climb the tower all the way!
This is a cupless race! Make sure to bring a cup or purchase one during registration! Cupless Racing Sponsored by HydraPak.
Aid Stations
Aid stations will have water, electrolyte drink, and an assortment of pre-packaged snack food. There may be other food options available by race day (given pandemic restrictions), but if there’s a specific food you need please put it in your drop bag.
Each aid station will also have a portable toilet available.
Drop bags
Please keep drop bags to a reasonable size, a small drawstring bag or similar sized box. Drop bags must be handed over by 7am of race day. 100K racers will NOT have a drop bag at their first aid station (Gate 31) on their first loop.
Drop bags will be returned to Start/Finish at various intervals throughout the day as racers complete the course. Any drop bags unclaimed at the end of the event will be donated/discarded (please don’t leave drop bags at the end of the race).
Swag
Participants will receive a finisher medal, SweatVac beanie and headwrap, plus our special Fire Tower patch!
