Event

The Snowbird Cirque Series race takes place in Snowbird, UT on July 11, 2026. The event is capped at 500 runners and is located on the Salt Lake Ranger District, Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest. Every competitor receives a snapback, giveaway ticket, logoed bib and medal, a sponsor swag bag, and free professional photos. Vendor village is present on site. Little and Big Cottonwood Canyons are protected watersheds; fines apply for dogs at the venue or left inside a car. Competitors are subject to a strict cut-off at the Hidden Peak summit - a two hour limit, after which the tram is used for descent.

Course

The course covers 8.9 miles with 3,610' ft of climbing. It starts at Tram Plaza base area and follows a service road along the creek to Creekside base area, then begins a sustained climb toward Mid-Gad chair. The route continues east on Rothman Way to Peruvian Gulch Trail, then onto the Ridge trail and Cirque Ridge up to Hidden Peak. The summit of Mt. Baldy is the highest point on the course.

The return includes a steep technical descent, a boulder traverse, an uphill section to Snowbird’s Ski through Tunnel, then downhill service roads and Peruvian Gulch singletrack back to the Tram Plaza finish. The course is marked with orange flagging; competitors must follow the flagged route. If a rock is kicked loose, competitors should shout "rock" and others hearing it should turn away and protect their head. If the trail lacks nearby orange flags, competitors should return to the last flagged section and notify the nearest course marshal, EMT, or Snowbird Patrol of any injured participant.
