Although you are correct that Tevis is perceived to be special (and IS 
special), it is not any more difficult than some of the other tougher 100's 
around the country.  OD and Bighorn come to mind, as well as a few 
lesser-known ones.  A tough 100 is a tough 100, and odds are that if one does 
very many 100's in pursuit of mileage championships, some of the tough ones 
are going to be on the schedule...
