2008 Course Maps

When the Bear 100 was first conceived, Leland hoped for a point-to-point run from Logan to Bear Lake. Regulatory hurdles prevented this from happening, until now. Because of your stewardship over your forest, the Wasatch-Cache/Uinta National Forest, along with the Caribou National Forest, have granted permission for the point-to-point course originally contemplated. 

The maps are best viewed outside of your browser in a stand alone viewer, like Microsoft Windows Picture and Fax Viewer.  To save the maps to your hard drive and view them in a viewer: (1) click on the thumbnail to open the large map; (2) right click on the map after it loads; (3)  choose "save image as" and then save it where you want it on your hard drive.  You can then open it in your viewer by clicking on it in Windows Explorer or Mac Finder.  NOTE: the maps are very detailed and very large.  You can zoom in on them in your viewer with great detail.
