Overview

The Triple Trail Challenge invites trail runners to a three-race summer odyssey through Park City’s most iconic single‑track terrain. Capped at just 400 participants per race, this limited-series experience offers:

  • Round Valley Rambler Half Marathon (June 14)
  • Jupiter Peak 25K (July 19)
  • Mid Mountain 50K (August 16)

Each event is equally stunning and unforgettable in its own right—or you can complete the full series and earn the exclusive TTC Trucker Hat, plus series awards for aggregate performance.

Course & Experience

  • Round Valley Rambler unfolds on high-desert single- and double-track at 6,500–7,100 ft, combining steady rolling climbs with fast descents. Perfect for trail lovers seeking a high-altitude PR or first ultra challenge.
  • Jupiter Peak 25K is a classic 16‑mile “inverted V” loop ascending from 7,000 ft to 10,000 ft atop Jupiter Peak, with dramatic switchbacks and panoramic Park City vistas.
  • Mid Mountain 50K delivers nearly 20 miles of traverse along the famed Mid Mountain Trail, winding from Silver Lake through forest groves to a long cresting descent into the Utah Olympic Park trail system.

Aid stations feature water, Skratch hydration, and light snacks; courses are thoughtfully marked to minimize navigation errors. Organizers emphasize safety—tracking each runner’s “check‑out” and “check‑in” at start and finish.

What Makes It Unique
Ultra-focused and boutique, the TTC balances elite-level trail challenge with a low‑stress, community‑driven vibe. With small fields, high-altitude terrain, challenging climbs, and thoughtfully curated swag (no plain race shirts here), it’s a must-do for serious mountain trail runners seeking local flavor and big views.

Course Description

The ROUND VALLEY RAMBLER TRAIL HALF MARATHON is the first race in the Triple Trail Challenge. 100% of the course takes place on prime, buff single and double track in Round Valley, which sits at an altitude between 6,500’ and 7,100’. While athletes will find the trails foot-friendly, the rolling, high-desert terrain presents a few long and steady climbs followed by fast downhills. The Round Valley Rambler is a stout trail half and serves as a reality check for athletes preparing for the other Triple Trail Challenge races.
