Course & Elevation
Starting in downtown Ketchum, runners ascend through the scenic Wood River Valley with stunning views of Bald Mountain. The course follows rolling terrain through pine forests and mountain meadows, with the turnaround at the summit viewpoint before descending back to downtown. The combination of altitude (starting at 5,850 ft), sustained climbing, and scenic mountain vistas creates a challenging but rewarding experience.
