Snow Gum Run > Mandatory Gear

MANDATORY GEAR

All Runners must bring their mandatory gear to the bib collection to have it checked.

The Snow Gum Run terrain, despite the beautiful landscapes, is legitimate wilderness. Therefore, you will be required to carry mandatory items and these will be defined as your minimum items.

SingleTrack Events will add to this any further items if the weather anticipated demands it so to manage most effectively your safety and that of our crew.
