General Rules
1. Participants must be at least 18 years old on the date their respective race starts.
2. Race participants may run walk or crawl, but may not make use of any motorized or wheeled vehicles during the race. Doing so would be grounds for disqualification.

4. Racers must follow the marked course route the entire way and register at each aid station and timing checkpoint. Taking short cuts, is grounds for disqualification.
5. Racers wishing to make a protest must notify the race command centre in writing within 60 minutes of finishing the race. Protests will be considered by a three person committee consisting of the race director, a representative from The North Face and a representative of the race timing system service provider.
6. Any littering on the course is strictly prohibited. Race participants are responsible for making sure that anything they throw out goes into a trash barrel. Littering on the course is grounds for disqualification.
7. The race number must be always visible on the outside of the racer’s clothing and on the front of the body. The racer should not cover over your race number with any backpack strap or article of clothing.

11. Use of trekking poles is permitted after passing the first checkpoint only. Those wishing to use poles must carry them in a backpack or waist pack with the points facing down.
