Spectator & Travel
IMPORTANT NOTICE:
MDT (Montana Department of Transportation) is doing work on I-90. The construction should have limited impacts on drivers exiting I-90 trying to get to the race. For any drivers leaving the race going home to the west (toward Spokane and Coeur d'Alene) there is a detour in place that has drivers going east into montana 5 exits - down to Exit 10 Saltise, and then go under the interstate and get back on I-90 going West Bound.
Runners traveling on I-90 from the east (Missoula, Helena, Saltese, MT) should not have any detour issues arriving or departing the race site. Runners traveling on I-90 from the west (Spokane and Coeur d'Alene) will not have any issues getting to the race, but can expect about a 15 minute longer return trip home due to construction.
------------------------------------------------------------
Parking & Shuttles:
There is no spectator parking at East Portal near the Start. We ask that spectators park at the Taft Parking lot off exit 5 on I-90 and take the shuttle to the start.
---
Spectator shuttle bus tickets will be $10 cash and payment can be taken at the Taft Parking lot.

Where To Stay:
Although, there are no places to stay in Taft near the run start, there are plenty of places to stay within a short drive. We recommend looking for a hotel or bed and breakfast in Wallace, ID. There are also numerous campsites in the area.
