The Tahoe Rim Trail 50 mile and 100 mile Endurance Run share the same course that takes place on high elevation alpine and sub-alpine forest trails and dirt roads in the Carson Spur of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. The event is located on the northeast side of Lake Tahoe. All distances begin and end at the Spooner Lake State Park, which is at 7,000 feet. The highest point of the event is just below the 9,214 foot Snow Valley Peak (which also provides one of the best views on the course). The low point is at the bottom of the now “infamous” Red House Loop (A Taste of Hell) at approximately 6800 feet.
