White Pine Solstice Runs
The White Pine Solstice Runs are trail races held in Tooele, UT in the Oquirrh Mountains. The event offers three distances that run through single track, dirt roads, ridgelines, and alpine summits around Butterfield Pass, White Pine, Kelsey, Tooele, and Butterfield Peaks.
- 55K - ~34 miles, ~12,500 ft total vert
- Half Marathon - 13.9 miles, ~3,700 ft total vert
- 8.5 Mile - ~8.5 miles, ~2,500 ft total vert
The 55K route includes long summit sections and ridgeline travel, with about 8 miles above 9,000 ft and about 2 miles above 10,000 ft. Terrain composition is mainly single track with sections of dirt road, off trail, and double track. Aid stations are positioned at Butterfield Pass and Settlement Canyon, producing long sections between support points including a 13.3 mile segment between aid stations 2 and 3. Organizers note potential lightning and variable mountain weather and recommend carrying sufficient hydration and gear for inclement conditions. The route has several major climbs and a cumulative elevation gain near 12,500 ft.
The shorter courses reach Butterfield Pass and Butterfield Peak East and return via White Pine Canyon. Each distance lists terrain percentages and hard cutoffs in hours at key mile markers.
The event is USATF sanctioned. Organizers describe a low key presentation with minimalist aid stations and modest awards for top finishers. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
