WAVE STARTS
JHMR Base Area (6,329 ft.) at the Big Red aerial tram
Runners will be assigned a wave start time according to their estimated finish time.
COURSE
The 50K starts by taking the JHMR trails across the hillsides until you reach the top of Rendezvous Mountain. From Rendezvous Mountain, take the Upper Rock Springs Loop along the ridge line towards the summit of Cody Peak. Along this trail is technical terrain and steep climbing. There will be a rope assist at this section to use.
After reaching the Cody Peak summit, descend down (rope assist available) and make your way back down to the Upper Rock Springs Loop. Continue down a service road to the upper Rock Springs drainage. Descend on the "climbers trail" for ~4.5 miles until reaching Yurt trail and connecting back to Hoback Trail. The remainder of the course is in reverse to the JHMR base area.
The course will be marked with flagging, caution tape, chalk and more.
REGISTRATION CAP
The 50K race is capped at 200 runners. Registration will close once this cap is reached, so we encourage you to register early.
ELEVATION GAIN
Total vertical gain is ~8,500 ft. with the highest point reaching Cody Peak at 10,770 ft.
FACE COVERINGS
All runners are required to wear a face covering during the start line gathering. Once the race begins, runners can take their covering down to run the course as they spread out.
BIB PICK UP
Bib pick up will occur in correspondence with assigned wave starts. Check out the weekend schedule here.
AID STATIONS
Aid stations provided will be administered with as little contact as possible and set in areas where social distancing guidelines can be implemented. Runners are responsible for refilling their own pack/water bottle. Food will be pre-packaged for each runner.
There will be ~ 10 aid stations along the 50K course spaced out by 4-5 miles each. Aid stations are cupless, meaning there will be no cups available for use.

Volunteers will be at aid stations ready to refill your cups and reservoirs.
