ORAMM

The Off-Road Assault On Mt. Mitchell is a 60 mile MTB race with 9,000+ feet of climbing.  From Old Fort you climb up to the Blue Ridge Parkway and just below Mt. Mitchell on beautiful Forest Service roads and unbelievable North Carolina singletrack.  Mt. Mitchell peaks at 6,684 feet and is the highest mountain east of the Mississippi River.  ORAMM starts and finishes in the town of Old Fort, North Carolina and sits at around 1,400 feet.  Most of the climbing is on Forest Service roads while most of the singletrack points downhill.  ORAMM is one of the best marathon distance MTB courses in the US!
