About the race

Welcome to the 2024 Desert RATS Trail Festival by UTMB! Desert RATS Trail Festival by UTMB is looking for a few AMAZING volunteers for  a fun 3 days of trail running.  The event takes place on 4/12, 4/13 and 4/14 in Fruita, CO. The events all start at Hawkeye Trail Head off I-70 in Mack, CO.  We couldn't be more excited to be a part of the UTMB Family and the UTMB World Series in 2024. Expect some exciting new additions to this year's race for both runners and volunteers. Desert RATS Trail Festival by UTMB cannot happen without our dedicated and passionate volunteers. We are eternally grateful for YOU; our Desert RATS Family!

All volunteers will receive a Desert RATS Trail Festival by UTMB shirt when they check in for their position. Volunteers will also receive a free meal at one of our Finish Lines.

Please understand that the time slots listed within each volunteer position are subject to change and currently is our most accurate estimate. As we continue to work with our permitting partners and finalize race logistics, we will update any necessary time slots accordingly. Those that have already registered to volunteer will be notified of any changes affecting their position. 

Volunteer positions are first come, first served. Please email our Volunteer Director, Amanda Olive at amanda.olive@ironamn.com  with any comments, questions, and/or concerns.
