White Mountains ClimbFest 600km
-------------------------------------------------------
Description:
The White Mountains of AZ are a stark contrast to what most riders think about when they think about Arizona. This is a challenging route, as are all of the 8k600 routes. It officially has 8000 meters of climbing over 600km. The time allowed for completion is also only 40 hours. Efficiency will be key to making the time cutoff.

With that said, the White Mountains are a gem to ride. The population density is quite low and the elevations reach 9400’. There are resources available to refuel and lodging options available based upon one’s own preferences for how to split the route.

If you prefer a more "leisurely" tour of the White Mountains, this 600k route is split into 3 (approx) 200k segments. This will allow you to ride in daylight to enjoy the sights. This is still a challenging set of rides, but should be doable by a resolute randonneur.  

Registration, maps, and more information for the 8k600 may be found HERE.

The 3 day version may be found here: Day 1, Day 2, Day 3.

Last Minute Notes may be found HERE. This link will be valid once available, generally the day after registration closes. Please read them. There will be a lot of information posted there. I will also send them out to registered riders. If you don't receive them, please check your spam folder.
