Scout Mountain Ultras has a service requirement for all starters of the 100 mile race. This can be satisfied by performing eight hours of work in one or a combination of the following: 1. organization of an ultra 2. service at an ultra (e.g. working an aid station) 3. work on a trail used by an ultra. 4. service work for an environmental non-profit (e.g. Idaho Conservation League) Note that generic trail work is not acceptable - it must be a trail on which an ultra is run, and must be coordinated with the Race Director of that ultra
