From the starting line near the Silver Fork Lodge high up in the area known as Big Cottonwood Canyon, which looks out from the Wasatch Mountains onto Salt Lake City in the valley below, runners will head west toward the city along an overall downhill route. Nearly all of the race unfolds along Highway 190/Big Cottonwood Canyon Road, which parallels the Big Cottonwood Creek, until runners reach Fort Union Boulevard, which they follow to the race finish line.
