Description

_ The 2022 Bridger Ridge Run:

The Ed Anacker Bridger Ridge Run is one of the most technical trail runs in the United States. In 2012, Runner’s World Magazine named the Ridge Run one of its top 31 trail races in the country, giving it the title of “Most Raw Exposure.” In 2013, Outside Online named the Ridge Run one of its Top 10 Bucket List trail runs in the WORLD. The Ridge Run is 19.90 miles of brutal climbing and descending, complete with unstable footing, unpredictable weather, and, of course, miles of exposure along the ridge line of the Bridger Mountain range. PLEASE READ THIS Current plan for the 2022 Ridge Run Sign-ups Currently we do not have any Covid restrictions, however as a successful applicant, we do ask that you keep in mind your safety as well as your fellow runners and Aid Station workers.  If you feel sick or know that you have been exposed PLEASE consider the well being of others and opt out of the run. While we are confident we will be able to have the race in 2022, please be aware when you sign up the event has the potential to be cancelled with minimal notice.  Please know we are committed to keeping all runners safe, and not putting others health at risk.  We will be taking guidance from our public health institutions, monitoring the situation, and communicating with you clearly as things evolve. We will make a final decision to continue with the race as planned by July 1st. If at any time we have to cancel the event, we will not reschedule it later in the year. We will do everything we can to make sure we can have runners on the ridge again this year. Here are the guidelines that will help you know how to participate:

  1. The Ridge Run Lottery/Selection Sign-ups will be May 8 - May 15th.
  2. All lottery participants will be notified via email on May 21st of their Ridge Run status.
  3. Accepted runners and lottery winners will receive a link to register for the race and have until May 29th to do so.
  4. All others will receive a link for volunteer opportunities (increase your odds for next year).
  5. July 1st will be the decision date whether to continue with the race or not.
  6. NEW THIS YEAR:  The first wave will start at 6:30 am. The following 4 waves will start every five minutes thereafter.
  • At this time there are no Covid restrictions however our rules may have to change in order to have the race. It is possible we may have to impose strict rules in order to have the race so please be aware.  
  • THIS YEAR'S RUN IS AGAIN "CUPLESS. That means that if you want anything to drink at the Aid Stations you MUST have your own container READY.  Also, there are limited snacks at the Aid Stations so we ask that you carry what you think you will need.
  • If for ANY reason YOU have to cancel the race after sign-ups, our regular policy stands – there are NO REFUNDS for any reason.
  • If WE have to cancel the race, those admitted into the race will have the option to “roll-over” their chance to run in 2022, do a virtual Ridge Run (and get swag)(VIRTUAL OPTION WITH FOREST SERVICE AND HEALTH DEPT. APPROVAL ONLY), or donate (and get swag) . Your unused portion of the entry fee will go  directly to the Gallatin Valley Land Trust – the non-profit we donate proceeds to every year. They help provide many of the trails we run on all the time!     
  •  As a successful lottery applicant, the entry fee for the Ridge Run will be $90.00 plus a $6.22 administration fee. This will maintain the highest quality run possible.
NEW THIS YEAR:  
  • The first wave will start at 6:30 am. The following 4 waves will start every five minutes thereafter. 
  • Some of the finish line activities will likely change this year.  We are currently working with the Forest Service in this regard. 
  • In order to keep the traffic down, we hope to have a commuter bus from the Fairgrounds to the M.
