Devil on the Divide - Empire, Colorado
Devil on the Divide is a mountain trail event held in Empire, Colorado on Saturday, September 12, 2026. The event offers two point-to-point distances and takes place on dirt trails, with the majority of each course on single track.
- 50K: point-to-point, 6,500 feet of climbing, top altitude over 13,000 feet.
- 22K: point-to-point, 3,400 feet of climbing, high altitude trail running.
Both courses run entirely on dirt surface. The route provides views of Clear Creek County and the Continental Divide. Cut-off times are enforced for both distances. Participants who register for the 50K but drop at Herman Gulch (the 22K finish) will not receive a 50K finish time.

Race entries are non-refundable and non-transferable, with listed exceptions for active duty military deployments, pregnancy after registration, and new child additions with appropriate notice. The race director reserves the right to postpone, delay, shorten, or cancel the event for safety reasons such as severe weather or forest fires; there are no refunds if the event is modified or cancelled.
Registration closes on Tuesday, September 8, 2026 at 11:59 PM Mountain Time. Prior ultra running experience is required for 50K participants; trail running experience at high altitude is highly recommended for 22K participants. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
