Red Rock Canyon Ultra : Blue Diamond, Nevada
Red Rock Canyon Ultra is a trail running event held near Blue Diamond, Nevada, with courses routed through Red Rock National Conservation Area and Cottonwood Valley. The event offers multiple distances and mapped courses that pass through sandstone canyons, washes, quarries, and limestone formations.
Distances offered:
- 100K course spanning the full Red Rock and Cottonwood Valley
- 50K course following portions of the Red Rock area
- 17K course starting at Blue Diamond Park
Aid stations and support are provided on the 50K and 100K courses at named locations such as Lost Creek (mile 7), South Oak Creek (mile 15.5), Blue Diamond (mile 19.5 and other points), Mud Spring, Late Night, Red Valley, and Satan's Escalator. The 17K course does not have an aid station; participants on that course must carry their own water or hydration. Drop bag locations, portable toilets, and crew access are available at several aid stations; South Oak Creek limits crew access while Blue Diamond and later aid stations permit crew. Pacer pickup points are designated on the 100K course.
Logistics information includes mapped course files for each distance, shuttle service for 50K and 100K with limited capacity per shuttle, remote parking for longer distance participants, and a packet pickup held the Friday before the event.
