Moderate
High evidence confidence · 94% evidence coverage
This score is driven most by high climbing demand, technical terrain. Difficulty V2's separate time-limit modifier adds 0.35 points here and is capped at 0.70; a broad limit cannot erase extreme intrinsic demand. This is independent of the public Cutoff Pressure V2 band.
Course analysis
Expect sustained upland ground and meaningful climbing, sections where foot placement and downhill confidence matter.
Climbing density
55m per km
A more useful comparison than total ascent alone: it shows how consistently the course asks you to climb.
Cutoff analysis
To finish inside 11h, the raw average required is 12:41 per kilometre (20:26 per mile), including every stop.
Cutoff pressure compares the published time limit with distance, ascent and verified course demands. Lower pressure does not mean the race is easy. Raw pace includes checkpoints, food stops, navigation errors and any sleep; it is not a pacing plan.
Who this suits
Better suited to runners with prior ultra, mountain or technical-terrain experience than to somebody choosing their first ultra.
3/10 suitability
Navigation
The route is described as marked, but runners should still read the final race instructions.
Exposure & kit
Some entrants may run into darkness depending on pace and start time. Prepare lighting even if your best-case plan finishes earlier.
Personal race predictor
Use a previous result to estimate a realistic range for Maverick Lakes X-Trail Ultra, your potential buffer and the biggest change in demand.
Practical detail
Logistics are only shown where currently recorded. Confirm parking, transport, crew access and final aid-station plans with the organiser.
Latest verification
The official route page verifies 19 September 2026, 52km, 2,858m, an 08:00–19:00 11-hour limit, full marking, four outposts and extensive mandatory kit. Its localised euro display is not treated as a verified GBP entry price.
Still unverified: entry price.
Event details can change after a successful source check. Confirm the final route, kit, cutoff, price and entry terms directly with the organiser before entering or travelling.
