Dreamchasers Outdoor Adventure, headquartered in Driggs, Idaho, present their 2nd annual 50-mile, 100-mile, and 100-mile relay races October 6 & 7.

Participants for the 100 mile challenge will begin their quest in West Yellowstone, Montana and the 50 mile racers are slated to begin in the spectacular and thundering Mesa Falls area, outside of Ashton, Idaho. All three races finish in the shadow of the Teton Mountains in the idyllic town of Driggs, Idaho.
