The Drift

Pinedale, WY

103 mi

103 miles of winter wonderland, with over 9,000 ft elevation loss/gain. Self-sufficiency is key, as there are no drop bags, pacers, or cell service along the way. Instead, you’ll navigate your way through varied conditions and temperatures, with check points separated by upwards of 25 miles of challenging terrain.

It is still very much winter up here in March. The temperatures can be sub zero, the wind can be relentless, and snowfall can be measured in feet. If you want a fast manicured course with aid stations every few miles this isn’t your race. If you want a true challenge in magical untamed wilderness, join us. You will be glad you did.
