Tiger Peak Challenge
The Tiger Peak Challenge is an Evergreen Trail Runs event on June 27, 2026, held at Clark Elementary School, 335 1st Ave SE, Issaquah, WA. The event offers multiple distances:
- 5 Mile
- Half marathon
- 50K
The Half and 50K routes include climbs to two of Tiger Mountain’s peaks. The 50K is run as two loops. Elevation gain is listed as 600 ft for the 5 Mile, 4000 ft for the Half, and 9000 ft for the 50K.
Course and logistics
Courses run through Tiger Mountain State Forest and the Tradition Plateau, with sections of forest and wetlands. Runners use local trails including Rainier Trail, the High School trail, and the Section Line trail, which climbs over 1300 ft in less than 1 mile to the West Tiger summit. Trails remain open to other users during the event.
Aid stations are placed on each course with volunteers, food, and hydration. Specific aid station mile locations are listed for each distance. Evergreen Trail Runs operates cupless events, so all participants must carry a refillable container. Packet pick-up is available at Snoqualmie Running and at the Start/Finish area at Clark Elementary. A free Woodland Speeders kid’s race is offered; that course is about 0.5 miles, mostly paved singletrack and flat. Every finisher receives a handmade finisher item produced using solar power.
