Yellowstone Gateway 30K

Yellowstone Gateway 30K is a challenging off-road race in Pray, Montana, covering just over 18 miles from Sage Lodge to Chico Hot Springs. The course features a 10-mile climb into Emigrant Gulch followed by an 8-mile downhill, with upper elevations an out-and-back segment and the rest point-to-point. Runners traverse rolling Paradise Valley foothills, along Emigrant Creek to views of Emigrant Peak and the Snowy Beartooths, then descend toward Chico Hot Springs. Participants navigate trails, gravel roads, dirt roads, and scree, across three aid stations. The event emphasizes sustainability, cupless racing, and community heritage, finishing with post-race food, beer, and a swim pass. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
