Backcountry Trail Run - Stampede Pass

Meet after breakfast and the warm-up session at Meany Lodge (approximately 7:30a), run from 8a-5p with several breaks along the way for water and snacks

The route will use USFS roads to join the Pacific Crest Trail at Stampede Pass and continue along the PCT past Mirror Lake and Olallie Meadows. Shortly after Olallie Meadows, participants will depart the PCT to join the Iron Horse Trail, taking the Snoqualmie Pass Rail Tunnel to Hyak. Participants will continue along the Iron Horse Trail to Meany Lodge. Total distance 30 miles, 6080' of elevation gain, 6080' elevation loss. 4500' maximum elevation.

We will run at an moderate, but steady pace throughout the day, which will make for a challenging day. The party may travel slightly faster than the estimated time depending on overall group fitness, but please do not plan to arrive back at the Lodge earlier than 5:00p. Leader's permission is required to confirm your registration at the Adventure Wellness Weekend and ability to complete the loop. While previous 50k+ finishes are not required, please do not let this be your first trail run nor first run longer than last Fall's Turkey Trot --let's talk.

 Please register for the Adventure Wellness Weekend before reaching out to the leader for permission.
