spectators

Spectators will not be allowed on Squaw Pass Road (Highway 103) or Highway 74 between Evergreen and Morrison due to the unique traffic control plans that will be in place for the event. Spectators are encouraged to gather at the finish venue to support their runners.

Alternatively, spectators can choose to support their runners along the Evergreen Parkway portion of the race. Because of closures, the best way to enter and exit the Evergreen area is by using Interstate 70, thus avoiding Highway 74 between Evergreen and Morrison. Runners will be using the easternmost lane of northbound Evergreen Parkway and there are multiple parking areas available along this portion of the route. Please also note that the course runs along Meadow Drive between Evergreen Parkway and Highway 74, thus avoiding the downtown Evergreen strip.

From approximately 6:00 AM to 12:30 PM there will be a continuous shuttle between downtown Morrison and Bandimere Speedway, where spectators can take the bus to the finish line. This will also be the same shuttle finishers and spectators can take back to their vehicles. There will be no vehicle traffic allowed at the finish venue.
