The Sprint Triathlon swim is a simple triangulation around one buoy,
0.75K / 0.47 mile. It starts in the bay and finishes at the boat ramp Transition area. This is a friendly open-water
swim in a warm, dry climate. Water temperture will be periodically posted on this website. Wetsuits are permitted
as per USAT rules. The second swim for the Pumice Man event is an out-and-back from the Transition, just out and
around the buoy.

bike
course

The bike course is a nicely rolling loop around the reservoir,15K / 9.32
mile. The Transition area is just above the boat ramp. Head out from there, turn right at Ross Rd, merge right
into Wamic Market Rd and then F.A. Morrow Rd, and continue to circle around Pine Hollow. Morrow Rd will take you
back toward the campground, and continue straight on to the boat ramp Transition area.

run
course

The run course is a 5K / 3.11 mile out-and-back. It starts at the Transition
area, then turns right onto Ross Rd. Take the first right at Price Rd, which is the hard-pack gravel road just
after 1 kilometer. Another kilomometer and a half, and there's a turn-around at the bottom of a slightly steep
hill. Run back the same route, safely crossing Ross Rd and turning left towards the campground. Just before reaching
the boat ramp transition area, turn right into the campground to finish.

Directions from Portland via I-84: Take the last exit at The Dalles, Exit 87, and follow signs onto HWY 97, towards Bend. Go
south on this highway for about 30 miles until you get to a flashing yellow light, where you turn right. Continue
straight on Tygh Valley Road, pass the Tygh Valley General Store on your left: 150 feet beyond the store you'll
reach a sort of intersection where the main road veers left. Drive straight and onto Wamic Market Road, following
signs to Wamic and Pine Hollow. After about 4 miles, turn right at Ross Road. After two and a half miles the road
ends at a stop sign: turn left here onto the Pine Hollow Access Road, then turn right into the campground.

The Pumice Man event is the same course as the Sprint Triathlon, except instead
of running in to the finish, participants run back to the transition area at the boat ramp and jump back into the
water, circle around the buoy, and back to the transition area. Then, the same bike and run legs follow, ending
at the same finish as the Sprint: 750 meter swim, 15 K bike, 5 K run + 750 meter swim, 15 K bike, 5 K run. There
is one common transition area for all three legs for both events.
