For Our New Runners:
This is especially geared to all the new runners of CBHM so you may plan ahead.
CBHM is Point to Point
Since this is a Point to Point race, the race starts in Pomfret and finishes in Quechee 13.1 miles later. So you'll want to park at the FINISH area not the start!
Race Start
Suicide Six Ski Area, Pomfret Vermont
There is absolutely NO PARKING at the Start area (drop-off's before 7:15 am are OK, follow signs to Suicide Six ski area from Woodstock)
Race Finish
Dewy Field, Quechee Vermont
Racer Parking is "Near" the finish. (Not at the finish) We will bus you back to the morning parking from the finish area or you can walk. (1/4 mile)
So the Morning parking is located off RT 4 at the Quechee Gorge Village.

Family and Friends Viewing
We are always asked where the best place to see the runners on course?
There are two places, the center of Woodstock and The finish area.
with the parking so limited in between, we do not want to clog the roads of the communities we pass through. We want their support year after year.
Please see the map for designated parking places! MAP
Reminder
If you can not run this year, your bib may not be transferred as stated in our FAQ on our site.
