With only 6 weeks to go until race day, we would like to take this time to thank the landowners who generously allow CBCC racers and Carrabassett Valley Trails' users to use their land for outdoor recreation. 🙏We're incredibly grateful; the CBCC would not be a true backcountry experience without these folks. Please join us in extending a heartfelt thank you to the Town of Carrabassett Valley, Sugarloaf Mountain Corp., Maine Huts & Trails, Penobscot Nation, Maine Bureau of Parks & Lands, Carrabassett Valley Sanitary District, and the private landowners! 🫶

HOT OFF THE PRESS! 🔥

A PDF of the Carrabassett Valley Trails 2026 trail map (front and back) is now available on the Carrabassett Region NEMBA website at https://carrabassettnemba.org - Be prepared; take screenshots so you can access the map when you’re in areas of weak/no cell signal. ✅ Paper maps can be found at various local trailheads and kiosks, Maine's Northwestern Mountains (Visitor's Center in Carrabassett Valley) and various local bike shops and businesses.

A big thank you to the 2026 map sponsors. 🙏
