Roll from Mikes Hole in the Wall (Chilhowee lot) @ 9:00 Saturday for the annual climb up the Beast (Roberts Mill). Weatherman keeps moving things around so be on the lookout for updates on the website beabubba.com. Traditionally this one has been all about making (or trying to make) it up the Beast and then heading to the closest bar to toast those who survived. Always a bit unusual when New Year’s Day falls on a Saturday so what Bubba needs is options!
Beast option is 37 miles, 3100 feet. Shave it by dropping down the W road if you need less. Lots of ways to add on up top for those with more time.
Beast Lite option (for those with injuries or general physical or mental weakness) travels with the Beast option but peels off on Mtn Creek Rd and climbs the W. (If traffic is bad we may climb the front of Signal instead.) Once on top head along the brow/Sawyer until we meet the Beasts and then turn and jump on that route.
