The Cirque 30K course showcases the best of Jackson Hole Mountain Resort. Start at the big red Aerial Tram, run over the bridge, and make your way left up the Tram Line trail. You’ll reach the first aid station and run the Lower Face loop, then connect to the Seven Bridges trail to cross the mountain side to Saratoga. Make the gradual climb up to the Casper Aid station (top of the Sweetwater Gondola), and keep the burn going up the Holey Moley trail. On your way up Holey Moley, you’ll find the T-Swift aid station. Fuel up and keep going up towards the top of the Bridger Gondola (Bridger Aid Station). You’ll keep running towards Tensleep Bowl and Corbet’s Couloir on the Cirque trail. Reach the Top of the World (Rendezvous Mountain Summit) & Corbet’s Cabin Waffles — take in the views. Make your way back down the mountain, back down Holey Moley, and down the Widlflower trail to the finish line where you started. End on the lawn, dip your feet in the stream, and pop open an ice cold drink.

We reserve the right to make course changes that place your safety first. This is a race in the mountains, where there is increased exposure to variable weather patterns that can change at any time. Runners should be prepared for a wide range of weather patterns and know that they may be directed off course if there is a severe weather threat.
DROP / DNF POLICY
If you must drop out of the race for any reason, please do your best to drop at an aid station unless in the event of an emergency. Upon arriving to that aid station, notify a volunteer. You will be transported back down the mountain either via Gondola ride, ATV ride, or truck ride.
If you must drop and you are unable to get to the nearest aid station, call Ski Patrol at (307) 690 - 6210.
