@andy_k @skinny I think Highland Trail will continue to require qualification. It's a brutally hard route, 550 miles, and probably 50 miles of rocky/slippy/boggy hike-a-bike. Loads of people blow their Achilles from all the walking and climbing over rocks with the bike.
I've qualified serveral times over now, and it still scares me! I am doing it in 2016 though. To me it seems more of an unknown than Tour Divide was.
