The Bootleg Boogie
The Bootleg Boogie is scheduled for January 30, 2027 in Boulder City, NV at Bootleg Canyon (1000 Yucca St). The event is organized by Capstone Endurance and offers multiple trail distances in a loop format.
Distances
- 100 miles
- 50 miles
- Half Marathon
The race runs on a 12.5 mile loop with roughly 1,875 feet of climbing and descent per lap. Total elevation gain is about 15,000 feet for the 100 mile (8 laps), 7,500 feet for the 50 mile (4 laps), and 1,875 feet for the half marathon. The terrain is steadily rolling with no extremely long climbs or reckless descents, and the loop format provides frequent access to aid, crew, and spectators at the centralized start and finish area. An early-start option is available with Race Director approval.
Aid stations occur three times per loop: HQ at mile 0 and 12.5, Caldera at mile 6.9, and Veterans at mile 10.8. All aid stations offer the same food and drink options including sandwiches, fruit, snacks, water, electrolyte drink mix and tablets, plus hot food after sundown. Drop bags are allowed at Caldera and HQ.
Pacers are allowed after mile 37.5 for the 50 and 100 mile races; crews are permitted at HQ only. Parking and camping are available at the base camp on a first come basis. Packet pickup takes place at the start/finish area on the day before and the morning of the event.
Entry fees are non refundable and non transferable. The 100 mile distance has a guaranteed base purse of $5,000, with additional funds added as more 100 mile entrants register; prize money will be awarded to top overall male and female finishers.
