Travel

The race starts in Pine, Arizona which is about 90 miles from Downtown Phoenix.  The best option for out of town runners is to fly into Phoenix Sky Harbor and rent a car or jump in with a friend for the drive out of Phoenix.  State Route 87 takes you into Payson, AZ and then Pine is about 20 minutes north from there.  Typically about 90 minutes to a two hour drive depending on where in Phoenix you drive from.  The start of the race is a mile before the town of Pine on the right hand side at the Pine Trailhead.  There is ample parking and camping is available right at the start.  

The Finish of the Race will be by #24 on the Map - Ramada Pine Museum & Cultural Center

Lodging

Payson has a variety of Best Western and other economy lodging options.  Pine is a smaller community but has a few options we'll list here.  We'd love for everyone, where possible, to support the Pine Community throughout the weekend.  It is a wonderful little community devoid of any major brands and corporations and money spent in Pine typically goes right back into that community.  Of course, as the Pine community supports this race and others like it we'd like to in turn help support them as well.  

Best Wester Payson has a room block for $89.99 Thursday night and $101.99 for Friday/Saturday night. Its one of the northern most hotels on the 87 leading to Pine, AZ (race start) so it's the most convenient.  Just ask for the Mogollon Monster 100 race discount:
