Comfortable temps, moderate wind

Starting at 61°F, heat will be a factor from the gun — go out conservative and stay on top of hydration. Moderate winds around 15mph may affect pacing on open sections of the course. Moderate humidity at 75% is worth noting for effort level, especially in later miles.

Race Info

The Superior 50 Mile is a point-to-point trail race on the Saturday of race weekend, running from the Finland Community Center to Caribou Highlands Lodge on Lutsen Mountain. It covers about 51 miles of rugged, mostly singletrack Superior Hiking Trail through the Sawtooth Mountains, passing Crosby-Manitou, Sugarloaf, Cramer Road, Temperance River and Oberg. The second half of the course is the same trail the Moose Mountain Marathon runs, and the finish is shared by all three distances.
