Ferris Fifty

Ferris Fifty in Minden, Nevada, features the inaugural 50-Miler, 50K, and 15K trail races starting at the Douglas County Fairgrounds and finishing in a festival atmosphere at TJ’s Corral outside the Carson Valley Inn. Runners traverse a mix of dirt, gravel, sand, and pavement on single-track and OHV trails through eastern Carson Valley with views of Job’s Peak and the Sierra Nevada foothills. The event offers seven aid stations for the 50M, four for the 50K, and three for the 15K; trekking poles allowed; crews at Mile 13 and 39; headlamps required after dusk for 50M.

Shuttles, bag drops, and finish-line music and vendors complete the experience. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
