Red Feather Trail Jamboree

Red Feather Trail Jamboree

The Red Feather Trail Jamboree is a three day trail running event held September 25 to September 27, 2026 at Ben Delatour Scout Ranch in Red Feather Lakes, Colorado. The event uses private camp land and adjacent National Forest trails and is capped at 500 total entrants.

Distances include:

• 50 Mile (approximately 8,500 ft vertical gain)
• 50K (approximately 4,200 ft vertical gain)
• Half Marathon (approximately 1,700 ft vertical gain)
• 3 Day Challenge option that combines multiple distances

Courses sit at high elevation with average elevations reported around 8,700 ft for the 50 mile and 7,800 ft for the 50K and half. Terrain is a mix of roughly 70 to 80 percent singletrack and 20 to 30 percent dirt road. Wildlife in the area includes moose, raptors, elk, mule deer, black bears and mountain lions.

The race base offers campgrounds, rentable cabins, community meals in the dining hall and an on site shower house. Aid stations are provided on course and stock sports drink, water, salty snacks, fruit, sweets and soda, with gluten free and vegan alternatives held for those who request them. The course is clearly marked and organizers publish maps and GPX files. Time allowances are set per distance and the 50 mile route includes one intermediate cut off at the Granite Ridge aid station. Drop bags are permitted at designated 50 mile aid stations. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
