WOW. Breathtaking scenery. Great shots! Wasn't sure I'd ever do a 100 miler but these photos make it quit enticing. Thanks.

Chris,

It WAS magical between Hwy 49 and No hands. You were flying! Your legs had lots still left in them after 95 miles!!

Great Photos! Nice shots of the course and trail for those to look at in preparation for running WS! Great job!

Lovely photos here however the Escarpment is being stretched way to far along the trail. The Escarpment is only the steep climb up from the first aid station at the Shirley Lakes Chair Lift. What you are actually seeing here is the west side of Emigrant Pass looking into the Granite Chief Wilderness area.

Beautiful pictures, the scenery is out of the world. I don't know how the runners or walkers whatever managed to run or walk that coarse. Sure is beautiful country though.
