Keep bags a reasonable size and weight. The size of a small gym bag, 12 x 12 x 36 inches. 15 pounds or lighter. Drop bags leave for aid station at 7 am on Saturday. They are returned when each aid station closes. You are welcome to pickup your bag early.

We suggest having your drop bags in a rain resistant package.

Hwy 12: Mile 77.4 and 86.3

Scuppernong: Used to be a drop bag location, if you felt you needed something there you can leave it in the building on Friday night. There will be no return service for those bags.

At each aid station we will have a “return” tarp. When you will no longer need your drop bag put it on the return pile. If we have enough volunteers we will return them throughout the race. Otherwise they will come to Nordic as each aid station closes. You can look at Aid station page of website to see close times.
