Marsh Peak Madness
Marsh Peak Madness is an endurance and speed run event held in Lapoint, UT, at the Middle Mountain Corral Trail Head. The event uses a 5 mile trail loop around Gull Lake with high mountain meadows and views of Marsh Peak and Lake Mountain.
The course has an elevation gain of 1,244 ft over the 5 mile loop. Several aid and water stations are available along the course. The location is a short drive from Vernal.
Event formats include:
- 12 hour endurance format

In the endurance formats participants complete as many full loops as they can within their chosen time limit; loops not finished before the time limit do not count. The participant who completes the most full loops within their time limit is the winner. The speed run is decided by the first participant to complete the 5 mile loop.
