3) There will be two drop-off zones.
a) Drop-off #1: As you drive down Quarry Road and approach the stadium, the large Harold Alfond Snowmaking Center is on your left. This is our athlete warming center for the weekend. There is also direct trail access to the sprint warm-up trail and the distance race course from this spot.
b) Drop-off #2: Continue past the Snowmaking Center and drive to the end of Quarry Road. The Welcome Center Yurt (Race Registration) will be on your left. There is a turn-around/drop off spot there that will be best for ski bags, wax benches, etc.
4) Once everyone is dropped off, the driver can return to the Maine General Health parking lot to park the vehicle and take the shuttle into the venue.
