Along another pond dam a bit over a mile from the finish.

A long downhill on grassy trail before the final up to the finish.

Grassy trail heading up toward the finish line.

More grassy trail up to the finish... funny how the climb gets longer and steeper every lap.

Finally, you break out into the campground and the finish is in sight.

Finally, the finish!
