The NUT 50K & 17M trail races are point-to-point UPHILL courses run almost entirely along the beautiful North Umpqua River in the Umpqua National Forest in Oregon. The 17M starts at Toketee Lake and finishes at Lemolo Lake. The 50K starts near the Marsters Bridge and also finishes at Lemolo Lake.

The trail winds alongside the gorgeous North Umpqua River, beside old-growth forest Douglas Fir, Hemlock and Sugar Pine, with trees more than 800 hundred years old. You’ll run through the beautiful Dread & Terror portion of the North Umpqua River trail, pass moss-covered rock bluffs and fern-covered hillsides, and travel through lush forest with several waterfalls. Both are challenging courses, described as “brutiful”.
