Tiger Peak Challenge
The Tiger Peak Challenge is a trail running event near Issaquah, WA, held on trails in Tiger Mountain State Forest and the West Tiger Natural Resources Conservation Area. The course moves through forested ridges, wetlands, and sections of the Tradition Plateau.
Runners begin at Clark Elementary School and follow local streets onto the Rainier Trail. The route includes a sustained climb on the High School trail and a steep section that gains over 1,300 feet in less than one mile to a West Tiger summit. The course then follows ridge trails past the West Tiger aid station, descends, and uses undulating trails that connect to the High Point Way and Lap aid stations. Half-marathon participants split from the 50K route after a descent while 50K runners complete an additional loop before rejoining the main circuit.

The event is organized by Evergreen Trail Runs, a race production organization active since 2010. The event policy states that race fees are not refunded; entrants may defer, transfer to another runner, or switch to another Evergreen event subject to fees and deadlines.
