Brighton Resort 20k

3963ft Vert Gain

“Beautiful and Brutal course”

July 27, 2024 - 7am

The race will start at 7am at the base of Brighton Resort near the Alpine Lodge where you will conquer your 20k (12.42 miles) course with nearly 3,963ft vertical gain through wildflower-covered terrain.

You’ll begin your ascent towards Twin Lakes and be cussing us out quickly. From there you’ll get a little down hill relief as you drop down towards Solitude Resort and pass the beautiful Silver Lake from above. You’ll begin to climb again and pass Lake Solitude on your way back to Twin Lakes. You’ll work your way through rocky terrain to reach Lake Mary. You’ll climb to the sister lakes, Lake Martha and Lake Catherine and then drop down to Dog Lake where you’ll connect with the OG Race for your final climb towards Clayton Peak. After nearly 10 miles up steep uphill and downhill terrain, you’ll begin your final ascent with the OG Race towards the finish line!

Women's Epic 20k is for all the women looking for a next-level challenge. It will push you to your breaking point both mentally and physically. It's technical, brutal, and gorgeous all at once. High altitude, steep climbs, steeper descents and backcountry vibes.

It's going to be oh-so-epic and damn hard. Think hell on the mountain with stunning views and a huge party at the end. If you're ready to take it to the next level, this one's for you (this course is NOT for beginners)!! Welcome to a Women's Epic Trail 20k at 10,500ft elevation.
