About the WP50

The White Pine 50 Backcountry Run will take you on an adventurous looped-course through beautiful Upper Logan Canyon in Northern Utah. We'll start and end at Beaver Mountain Ski Area, and follow some of the legendary Bear 100 course along the way. Official start time is 6am, but we allow an early start at either 5am or 4am for those needing more time to make the cutoffs.

For those who enjoy fishing while they run we'll have a special prize for Fish Slapping the WP50! Keep reading for more details. Please see the Runner's Guide here.

Camping & Lodging

You may camp at Beaver Mt. for $25/night (please reserve at bookthebeav.com). A limited number of tent sites are available. Car/Van/RV camping is permitted in the parking lot. The showers and flush toilets are open this year!
Free, dispersed camping is often available along the nearby Beaver Creek and Franklin Basin Roads. Area campgrounds run by the USFS include Sunrise (Bear Lake Overlook), Lewis Turner and Tony Grove.
If camping isn't your thing, check out Beaver Creek Lodge less than a mile from the start line. Garden City and Logan have many options as well.
