The buck stops here at our most epic race yet, the MDH BUCK-FIFTY!  No excuses, no whining, if you want this rare and limited BUCKLE then you must understand one simple rule… YOU are 100% responsible for YOURSELF at this race. The MDH150 is one of the RADDEST endurance feats a person can aspire to attempt on one of the longest and BADDEST single-track trails in the world. You can HIKE, BIKE or RIDE your horse! The course is open from May to October and your ONLY competition is yourself… and if 150 miles isn’t enough for you, then test your resolve with the MDH300 out and back option.

Start and Finish

This LEGENDARY race begins at the southernmost point of the world-famous MAAH DAAH HEY TRAIL, the Burning Coal Vein Campground Trailhead. Racers will travel north on the raw & rugged BADLANDS single-track phenomenon, with the goal of reaching the northernmost trailhead at CCC Campground, over 150 miles away.  Both Units of the Theodore Roosevelt National Park will be bypassed.

Safety

This is a “self sufficient,” POINT-TO-POINT, single-track, “in the middle of nowhere,” extremely hardcore race. Racers may encounter difficult terrain, wild animals, livestock, water crossings and other dangerous situations. Every participant will be 100% responsible for him or her self. Racers should be well experienced in extreme endurance events and very capable of taking care of themselves in the remote wilderness. Racers must be honest with themselves whether or not they are ready, willing and able to attempt a challenge as extreme as the MDH150/ MDH300.

Time: 12:01am May 1st - 11:59pm October 31st
