The 2027 Kahtoola Uphill presented by GORE-TEX Products is an annual mountain race and fundraiser for Friends of Camp Colton held on Saturday, February 20, 2027. The event is described as family-friendly and encourages human-powered movement while marking its 20th year. Teams may be formed with any number of participants. Race courses include the Cambium Wealth Strategies Fun Climb, the Midway Climb, and the Lumberyard Brewing Co. Öo’mawki Climb, with routes described as ranging from fun to challenging.
All proceeds benefit Friends of Camp Colton to support outdoor education for kids, expand student access, and contribute to program development and long-range planning. The event runs two raffle programs: a Race Raffle with prizes valued at $25 and up, and a Golden Ticket raffle offering 24 prizes valued at $500 or more. The Golden Ticket program will sell 240 tickets at $100 each, with an overall chance of winning of about 1 in 10; winners do not need to be present to win.
