The 'alternative' 2012 race course has not been anounced yet for the U.S. Nationals. These photos were taken mostly on 1/3/2012. An update is expected from http://www.jacksonrandonneerace.com/ soon.
As far as I can tell, the course will cover the distance and vertical of previous years. There will be a few diversions on the downhills and on the Big bootpack. I believe the Race division will skin around Corbet's Couloir and follow a 'booter' up Dean's area.
The line-up for the race is looking great with racers coming from all over the country and Canada.
Should be a great race and good to see all the good racing friends and folks.
If you are thinking about signing up - do it, the more the merrier. This is a grand race.
