And in the west, let me recommend our Swanton Pacific 100.  (Another 
shameless plug.)

I'll just throw out here that I recommend the Biltmore 100. I know
some think it's tough but it has a lot going for it. I like it being
on private property so there's not a problem with markers being
tampered with or worrying about who'll you'll run into after dark.
They have tons of good vets. There as lots of people in the 100 so
very little chance you'll get left alone when riding buddies get
pulled. They hang lots of glow sticks. You do the last 10 miles
before & after dark so the horse knows the trail. I think there's
good variety of terrain. I walk all the steep hills and still tend to
finish at a decent time.

If all goes well I plan to do my horse's first 100 there this spring.
