The Dark Divide 100K: a point-to-point race from Wright Meadow to Cispus Learning Center, 60.74 measured miles with ~16,500 ft of gain and over 19,000 ft of descent, ~80% singletrack. Shares its entire route with the back half of the 100 Mile course from Wright Meadow through Juniper Ridge, then diverges onto its own return leg via Yellowjacket Creek and Burley Mountain Fire Lookout (the 100 Mile course returns to the finish via a shorter, more direct leg from its own second Juniper Ridge visit). No shuttle service exists between Cispus Learning Center and the Wright Meadow start; runners and crew are responsible for their own transportation.
Page prose states 'approximately 16,500 feet of elevation gain accompanied by over 19,000 feet of descent'; the official chart and course-sections document both give 16,587 ft gain / 19,031 ft loss, matching the course GPX exactly. CONFLICT, not resolved: the course-sections PDF's final row states the course finish at 'Cumulative Mileage 62.66 miles' in its per-section detail block, but the same document's own summary table row, the 2026 aid-station chart, and the official course GPX (<desc> '60.74 Miles') all independently agree on 60.74 miles. The 62.66 figure is treated as a stray error in that one PDF cell and 60.74 is used as distance_miles, but the conflict is recorded here rather than silently discarded. Separately, a nominal '100K' (100 km) is 62.14 miles; the measured course (60.74 mi / ~97.75 km) runs a bit short of that, which is normal for trail races and not itself a data conflict.
A wilderness trail-race weekend (100 Mile, 100K, 50K, 15 Mile) through the 70,000+ acre Dark Divide Roadless Area in the Gifford Pinchot National Forest, based at the Cispus Learning Center near Randle, Washington. The 100 Miler is a Hardrock 100 qualifier.
Wonderland Running founder Sean Harrasser has run the race since its start; a 2026 Facebook post from the organizer calls the 2026 edition "year six," placing the first edition in 2021. The race is dedicated in part to the memory of five-time Hardrock finisher Mike "Bushwhacker" Burke.

Nobody sees it until we have read it. No account, no sign-in.
This changes nothing on the page on its own. Somebody checks it against the race first.
We want the address of the file the race publishes, not the file. We download it from there so the page can say where the line came from.
We read every one of these and we write back. Every fact here carries the source it came from, and the way a wrong one gets fixed is a person checking it against what you tell us.
NavRun builds your pacing from your own training, then turns it into a plan your crew can follow: when to leave and where to park.
