DownloadTake Hiway 126 to Mile Post #30, which is two miles west of the town of Walton. Exactly at the Mile Post #30 sign is Pataha Creek Road - if you're coming from the Eugene area, turn left onto it; if you're coming from the Florence area, turn right onto it. The turn onto Pataha Creek Road is on a curve, with fast traffic coming from both directions - please watch carefully when turning (both coming to and going from the event). At the turn, there is a sign that says, "Fernleigh". Once on Pataha Creek Road, drive slowly over the railroad tracks, then slowly over the bridge. About 100 yards after the bridge, there will be a sign to park on the left - you're now at Wildcat Meadows.
This event will be held regardless of weather conditions, although the exact course configuration could change due to water. There will be covered areas to stay dry prior to and after your event, with a heater. There will be a bonfire to stay warm by, or to roast your marshmallows. Portable toilets will be onsite. There will be hot food and hot and cold beverages (cider, beer and non-beer) after you finish. Although we love dogs, dogs are not allowed at this event.
Please park in designated areas only.
This event will be chip timed. Please wear your bib on the front. The top five in each age group will receive a commemorative bigfoot medallion. The overall male and female winner of each distance will receive a Champion shirt.
