The
San Juan Solstice 50 mile endurance run is a scenic
and very difficult loop through the high San Juans.
The run consists of five main sections: the climb up
Alpine Gulch and down William's Creek, the climb up
to the old mining town of Carson, a long section along
the Continental Divide, a descent to Slumgullion Pass,
and a final hump up and over the Vicker's Ranch plateau.
The San Juan Solstice 50 is for the experienced trail
runner only. For more details, choose a topic in the
navigation bar to go to a specific section.
All
proceeds benefit the Lake City EMTs, our all-volunteer
emergency medical team, most of whom will be helping
at aid stations on race day!
Cancellation Policy
The race committee
reserves the right to cancel or alter the race due to
conditions outside of our control, such
as weather, snowpack, fires, or other acts of nature.
We will do our best to return a portion of the entry
fee if the race is cancelled, but please remember that
we incur a lot of costs and we are a non-profit event.
Runner's safety is our priority.
