General Race Info

Point-to-point trail run through the Wasatch-Cache National Forest of southeastern Idaho.  Race starts at the archery range in Emigration Canyon, Idaho and skirts past Midnight Mountain down into Dry Basin, over into Paris Canyon, then down into Cub River Canyon to finish at the Deer Cliff Lodge.  Race follows about 34 miles of the Bear 100 mi ultramarathon course (held September 26-27, 2003).  Lunch and awards will be at the finish line. The Cub River flows just behind the Deer Cliff Lodge making an ideal place for friends and family to hang out in the shade while waiting for runner(s). It can be VERY HOT this time of year.  Train wisely.  This is a challenging training run for road marathons or for longer ultras.  Please come race or volunteer to support this fund-raising effort!
