Race Information

These beautiful and moderately challenging 12k & 30K races take place on the Thunderbolt Creek trail and parts of the Continental Divide Trail (CDT) west of Basin, Montana. The 30k course has approximately 3,200 feet of elevation gain, while the 12k has about 1000 feet of climb. Seasoned runners may have PR opportunities here, but first-time 12k & 30k runners will enjoy the courses just as much. This is a one-of-a-kind experience!
