On That Massive Amount of Snow in The Sierras

Many of the races in that area are planning with the realities of snow on the course. Canyons had to be rerouted quite a bit but, even races happening in June/July will still be dealing with snow on their trails.

• Broken Arrow issues statement:

The snow is a valid concern given our record breaking, historical snowfall in Lake Tahoe this winter.

Despite that, we’re extremely confident that the race will go on without any major impacts, as it did after big winters in 2017 and 2019 where we ran 80% or more of the entire course on snow. 

• Tahoe 200 shifts dates from June to July 21-25.

• Western States hasn’t made any official announcements I could find. They are currently focused on working on rebuilding the trails the Mosquito Fire destroyed.
