Spartan Race takes over Snowbasin this weekend, July 11th and 12th, bringing a full lineup of obstacle course racing across the mountain. Athletes will tackle the Sprint 5K, Super 10K, and Beast 21K, plus a Kids Race for our youngest competitors. Because racers need the terrain, all mountain trails will be closed to the public from Friday, July 10th through Sunday, July 12th.
Kick off the weekend on Thursday, July 9th, with the second week of Sunset Social at Needles Lodge, running from 5pm to 9pm. Dented Brick Distillery joins as our event partner with crafted drinks made just for the evening, while Cactus Cola brings the tunes as the sun sets over the mountain.
Guests can still get their trail fix at the Bike Park Powered by SCOTT, open and 4pm to 8pm during Thursday's Sunset Social, all on Roll Out, Scratch That, Squirrel, and Ridgeline. Cinnabar will also be open all weekend from 12pm to 6pm for guests looking to refuel and watch the action. Racers can expect ideal conditions for pushing through the obstacles, with sunny skies and highs near 82 on Saturday and 84 on Sunday, so plan for plenty of water and sun protection on the mountain.

All guests must use access gates regardless of website status. Website information is intended to inform the guest of terrain status, but it is the guest’s responsibility to confirm the area is open by entering through an access gate. Signage on the mountain supersedes website information. Failure to use access gates may result in loss of pass privileges.
