The card

Whiskey Basin 60K starts 7:00am on April 17, 2027 after a 6:10am shuttle from Watson Lake, covering about 37 miles with 3,769 feet of gain to 6,685 feet and a 10:00pm (15-hour) finish. Aravaipa publishes a full aid/cutoff table from Copper Basin through Sundog. Crew is start/finish only; pacers are not allowed on the 60K. The RD page tells 60K runners to utilize drop bags without naming 60K-specific stations (unlike the 92K list). UltraSignup 60K finishers: 96 (2026), 85 (2025), 73 (2024).
