- Where is the exact start/finish line for Freaky Creeky?
- The race is held at Kalamalka Lake Provincial Park, specifically starting near the Twin Bays/Jade Bay parking area. Follow event signage once inside the park.
- Is there a mandatory gear list?
- Yes, especially for the 50km and 100km distances. You must carry a hydration vessel, whistle, and emergency blanket. Bear spray is highly recommended due to the local wildlife.
- What is the terrain like for the marathon and ultra distances?
