About the race
The Sasquatch Ultra Trail is a timed trail running event held at Sasquatch Mountain Resort in Agassiz, BC, organised by Heads or Trails. It offers endurance formats of 24 hour, 12 hour, and 6 hour where participants complete as many 10 km loops as they can within the allotted time; the competitor with the most laps at the end is the winner. A separate kids race is an out-and-back of 1 km.
The course is a looped mountain route with roughly 500 m of elevation gain per lap and features singletrack, forest trails, and mountain terrain. Runners may set up a tent beside the start and finish area to use as a home base and to keep crew support close.
Race-day nutrition is provided on a rotating schedule, with new menu items offered every three hours. The menu is built for endurance athletes and includes items such as fried rice, grilled cheese, perogies, burgers and hot dogs with vegetable options, cheese tortellini, tater tots, soup, and pancakes. The event format allows participants to run, walk, or move at their own pace as they accumulate laps on the looped course. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
