Runners follow a point-to-point route for the half marathon that starts just to the southwest of town in the foothills of the Bridger-Teton National Forest. From there, the race then heads northward and westward along a gradual downhill descent that starts at about 7,000 feet above sea level and runs through the tiny towns of Turnerville and Bedford before heading back into Thayne for the race finish at Thayne Elementary School.
