The Big Frog 65 has been a southeastern favorite for years. With a higher ratio of climbing per mile, it is merely shorter than the Cohutta 100, but it isn’t less challenging. Racers will enjoy the same mountain views and fast descents from the singletrack through the Cherokee National Forest as the Cohutta 100, but the gravel road section is slightly different. Don’t consider this a walk in the park! Bring your fitness and fortitude! We’ll bring the fatigue!
GPS navigation is required for the Big Frog 65 Race
