Event details

The Beaverhead Endurance Runs take place on Saturday, July 11, 2026, in Salmon, Idaho (561 Geertson Creek Rd, Salmon, ID 83467). Two distances are offered:

  • 100K
  • 55K

The entry fee listed is $230 for the 100K and $150 for the 55K. At the time shown, there were 95 spots remaining for the 100K and 39 spots remaining for the 55K. Registration closes June 14, 2026. The 100K is a Western States 100 qualifying race. Both races are Ultra Trail du Mont Blanc qualifying races.

Course and terrain

Both races are point-to-point and run predominantly on the Continental Divide Trail and along the Continental Divide, following the border between Idaho and Montana. The west side of the route borders the Lemhi River Valley and the east side borders the Big Hole Valley. The course stays high in the mountains and follows natural elevation changes along the divide, with the exception of the final descent to the finish. At about mile 49 of the 100K, runners leave the official Continental Divide Trail but continue on the true Continental Divide border for roughly five more miles before dropping off the divide and descending into the headwaters of Bohannon Creek. The route includes climbs, descents, flats and technical sections. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
