Mt. Hood
The 50K course offers an absolutely stunning, world-class point-to-point mountain trail race route, featuring volcanic alpine ridgelines up high and big forests, wildflower meadows and waterfalls down lower. This challenging and scenic mountain trail race shuttles runners out to the start line east of the mountain, then runs ridgeline trails back onto the volcano, up high into the alpine, then down to the finish at Mt. Hood Meadows. Runners will encounter a broad range of PNW terrain, from smooth dirt single track to steep, historic rocky doubletrack and steep, exposed and sometimes scrambly volcanic rock trails. Truly magnificent views abound from start to finish!
