Beaverhead Endurance Runs

The Beaverhead Endurance Runs, held in Salmon, Idaho, feature challenging 100K and 55K point-to-point races along the Continental Divide National Scenic Trail, marking the Idaho-Montana border. The course traverses high mountain terrain with a mix of climbs, descents, flats, and technical sections, offering diverse running experiences. The 100K race diverges from the official trail at mile 49 to avoid difficult cliffs, finishing near Bohannon Creek. The 55K covers the latter half of the 100K route, starting near Lemhi Pass. Both races maintain high elevation and serve as qualifiers for the Western States 100 and Ultra Trail du Mont Blanc events, attracting endurance runners seeking scenic and demanding courses.
