Default new California Gold Rush course?

I see the gold race has changed to two loops for 42k (down from 50)
total - does anyone out there know what trails the new "scenic" course
uses? The silver drops to 21k (from 30) and the bronze is only 10k:

Hi Bob,

Sorry, since the email digest doesn't come to me anymore, I don't
check the newsgroup nearly that often. Next time you need an answer to
anything Far West nordic-wise, you should know by now who to ask
directly.

The new course will be shorter, but still challenging. It will go out
the traditional Palisades trail, then will cover the existing back
loop (Devils Outlook) in counterclockwise direction, similar to the
way the course skied pre-1995. Then it will return via Stagecoach,
Snow Mountain, Castle Pass, Reindeer, and Big Ben to the Lodge.

Hope that helps.

Mark
