This is skyrunning in the USA. This is skyrunning in the PNW. After many years of absence Beast of Big Creek will mark the return of the Skyrunner World Series to the US. In just a couple of weeks athletes from all over the world will get to experience racing Mount Ellinor in the Olympic Mountains.

These mountains have been here for thousands... millions of years and that is why we run them, but the people is what makes Beast of Big Creek special and why we come back to the Olympic Mountains year after year. Join us in 2026 and experience skyrunning in the Pacific Northwest.

First time RDing at Leavenworth Trail Fest. THANK YOU ALL!! 🥨🌼

Really rad field of runners with wins in the 25k and 50k . A last minute course change added a bit of spice including a section to steep for anyone to run all of it. Maybe next year 😉

Other highlights include various German themed things, getting dropped by an 8 year old at the kids race, and holding it down, seeing Katie romp around with Jack in lederhosen, some delicious kombucha, awesome volunteers and old friends, and a whole lot of new friends!

This race feels special. I appreciate all the hard work by Scott putting together a vision. I can’t wait to see what it has next for it.

North Bend, 10/3-4 on tap!
