Mt Hood Trail Runs
Mt Hood Trail Runs comprises three trail distances held near Timothy Lake and Clackamas Lake Historic Ranger Station, approximately 20 miles south of Mt Hood (coordinates 45.0986, -121.7513). The event takes place on National Forest land and uses multi use trails where horses may be encountered.
Distances included:
- 50-mile (50M) largely on the heavily shaded Pacific Crest Trail with mountain views
- 50K much of the course on the Pacific Crest Trail with mountain views
- 25K around Clackamas and Timothy Lakes on single-track and double-track trails
The organizer acknowledges and respects that the event occurs on the traditional homelands of the Molalla Tribe, Tenino Tribe, and the Confederated Tribes of the Warm Springs.
Registration is tiered by date and fees vary by distance. The 25K is listed as sold out and wait lists open when a distance fills. Optional merchandise is available for pre order during registration until June 1. The organizer does not allow bib transfers and refunds are not offered; cancellations more than 30 days before the race receive a 50 percent credit toward a future race while cancellations 30 days or less before the race receive no credit.
Post race provisions include cooked burgers for racers and volunteers, alcoholic and non alcoholic beverages, a finisher pint glass for every finisher, awards for top finishers and age groups, and a raffle. Nearby camping options and established campgrounds surround Timothy Lake. Parking is managed on portions of Forest Service Road 42 with posted signs and volunteer direction.
