Colorado Cold Rush Ultra

Colorado Cold Rush Ultra is the "coolest" winter running event! Run along historic High Drive and through the amazing tunnels of the Colorado gold rush. Although there is always a possibility of snow, the course is an exceptional route for winter running. 

The 50k is an out-and-back course that begins at Bear Creek Regional Park. The course climbs historic High Drive before continuing on Gold Camp Road. Runners turn around where Gold Camp meets Old Stage Road. Some of the best views of Colorado Springs can be seen from this beautiful course! -Elevation Range: 6,175' - 9,090'
