Course line from the race's own GPX. Source file. Recorded 2026.

From town to summit, the Brink 100 starts in the heart of Ashland and finishes high at Mt. Ashland Lodge. It runs through the night across remote watersheds, ridgelines and alpine terrain, with stretches of the Pacific Crest Trail and an out-and-back to the top of Dutchman Peak. It is a true mountain hundred.

Trekking poles are permitted.
