About the Event

Answer the wild call of winter on Sunday, 15th March 2026 with a choice of frontier challenges in Wyoming's Wind River Range: the historic Drift 28 or the accessible Drift 13. These aren't typical road races; they are immersive journeys of pure, unsupported endurance along the snow-draped paths of the Upper Green River. The 28-mile course retraces the nation's oldest cattle drive, demanding grit across fast flats and remote terrain, while the 13-mile out-and-back offers a breathtaking yet manageable entry into winter ultra-running. With no pacers, minimal cell service, and conditions that command self-reliance, this is where you test your spirit against the raw, majestic silence of the high country. Embrace the minimalist ethos, the stark beauty, and the profound camaraderie of an event that strips running down to its essential, thrilling core. This is more than a race—it's a pilgrimage for those who find peace in the heart of a winter wilderness.
