Post Canyon Half Marathon - Hood River, OR
The Post Canyon Half Marathon is a trail race held in Hood River, Oregon on August 22, 2026. The event is presented as the 12th edition and uses the Binns Hill Staging Area for the start and finish. The listed entry price is USD 82.18 and registration closes on August 19 at 11:59 PM PT.
The course runs on Hood River County Forestry Tree Farm and may be adjusted at short notice, so organizers do not publish a final map in advance. The route features about 2,300 ft of elevation gain, multiple mountain views toward Oregon and Washington, and small waterfalls at Bridge Creek crossings. There are two official aid stations plus additional informal stations for snacks and entertainment.
Race logistics and rules include a cupless policy and a minimum personal water requirement of 24 oz or a hydration pack. Pets and earbuds are not allowed. Number pick up takes place the morning of the event and registered racers receive an email the Thursday before the race.
All finishers receive a finisher prize bag promoted as having retail value above the entry fee, and some participants can receive additional bonus prizes valued between $10 and $170. The event notes nearby camping at Kingsley Reservoir about 15 minutes away. No refunds, rollovers, or transfers are permitted. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
