One of the original US 100-milers, the Wasatch Front 100 traverses the brutally rugged Wasatch Range from Kaysville to Soldier Hollow in Utah. With nearly 8,000 meters of climbing and descending over rocky, exposed ridgelines and steep canyons, it is widely considered one of the hardest hundred-milers in the country.
