Bring your best friends to Moab and experience remoteness of Moab's Behind the Rocks area. We've designed this course to be rugged and tough enough to be worthy of the name "Thelma and Louise."​When Thelma and Louise took a stand, they took a turn onto the dirt.The tires are screeching, the car is turning...are you ready to face the music?​See the towering red rock walls of Lone Rock, believed to have been used for religious ceremonies by the Ancestral Pueblo people; their ceremonies worshiped their "mother deity."

Behind The Rocks UltraBehind the Rocks Ultra starts and finishes at the Behind the Rocks Trail, along the border of the Behind the Rocks Wilderness Study Area. Moab's last hidden gem; its tall standing Navajo Sandstone domes and fins can be seen from many places along the course. This course traverses some remote trails, and gives you the opportunity to enjoy the desert solitude. From smooth double track to sandy washes, technical doubletrack, and challenging singletrack, Behind the Rocks Ultra will test you mentally and physically. While the 10 Mile and 30K can give runners an introduction to Moab trail running, the 50 mile course is among our most challenging events. It includes some technical down climbs and rim running that offer amazing views of arches and rock formations. As runners close in on the finish line, they'll see it nestled just below the La Sal Mountain Range. A great place to enjoy the finish line with a great community! With free camping at the start/finish line, you're welcome to spend the weekend. Bring your cooler, stocked with your favorite post race drinks, and stay for the fun!Check out the race website for:Packet Pickup Times and LocationRace GuideRace MapsAid Station InformationCutoff TimesDriving DirectionsFAQsTravel InformationCancelation Information
