Bona fide media – roughly defined as those who provide “breaking news service” to the general public – are encouraged to apply to cover the event in person, however no commercial photography or videography may be conducted at the race without the specific written permission of AdventureCORPS, Inc.

The National Park Service and U.S. Forest Service may require special permitting well in advance of the race and may also require payment of a permit fee and associated Ranger Monitoring fees. See below.

Some film crews may be required to sign a Non-Exclusive Licensing Agreement and, in some cases, pay a Rights Fee.

ADDITIONAL PHOTO / VIDEO REGULATIONS WITHIN DEATH VALLEY NATIONAL PARK

The National Park Service regulates photography and videography that is considered commercial in nature. (The NPS had jurisdiction over the first 85 miles of the race route. Therefore photos and videos shot over the last 50 miles of the race route are not governed by NPS regulations.)  Please study this NPS webpage for more information and contact the NPS as needed.
– All those who are required to obtain a Commercial Filming Permit, and all bona fide media must also attend the Media Check-In and Briefing prior to the race.

Please contact us with any questions, to apply for a Media Credential, or for other information. Thank you!
