2027 Mt Blue Sky Ascent & RoundTrip

Race Information

The Mount Evans Ascent is the highest paved road race in North America, starting at 10,600 feet in elevation and climbing to the summit of 14,264-foot Mt Evans via the scenic paved auto road. The Ascent is 14.5 miles and Round Trip is 29 miles (up & back down). The climb totals nearly 4,000 vertical feet - much of it above treeline.

Each finisher receives a custom finishers medal, with a special “Trophy Rock” awarded to men who finish under 2:40 and women under 3 hours. A terrific post race picnic with awards & raffles greet you as you filter down off the mountain. Overall, masters, and course record $ bonuses will be offered.

👍 Run Pick of the Month: Zion Half Marathon

📍 Squamish - Saturday February 27, 2027

😄 Why We Like This Run
✅ Breathtaking national park views
✅ Smooth, gentle route
✅ An unforgettable atmosphere

Lace up for 13.1 miles through the heart of Utah's red rock country. Starting on Kolob Terrace Road in Virgin, Utah, this gently rolling, point-to-point course follows the Virgin River, just two major turns stand between you and the finish, as towering sandstone walls and endless desert views build with every mile.

It's bold. It's beautiful. It's unforgettable. And it ends right where the adventure should: at Cable Mountain Lodge in Springdale, staring at the South Entrance of Zion National Park. Beat the 10/31 price increase!
