What Makes It Great

A scenic high-altitude trail half marathon offering the most accessible entry to the Tushar Mountain experience. Starting at Eagle Point Resort, runners cross the saddle between Mt. Holly and Lake Peak, traverse a stunning high-elevation meadow, and visit Lake Stream Aid before heading south to City Creek Peak and looping back to the finish. The only Tushars event without mandatory gear requirements — but still a genuine mountain challenge at 10,500 feet.
