Squak Mountain 50K Trail Run

Race Overview

Squak Mountain is arguably one of our most challenging trail races and a staff favorite! The rugged, steep terrain of Squak Mountain is waiting for you! You'll find every shade of green imaginable in this lush forest. You can focus on the moss-covered trees, ferns, and babbling streams to distract you from those burning quads.

Course Description

All distances will begin with a steady but significant climb. The 12k will then split off from the Half course and head towards the summit aid station, while the Half and 50k runners will continue on up to summit the Southeast Peak of Squak. The Half course will then follow trails along the north side of Squak before arriving at the Summit Aid for the first time. Then, after completing another loop using some of the Chybinski Loop and summiting the West Peak of Squak. The 50k has some extra loops built into this section before both the Half and 50k rejoin to head back to the Summit Aid Station. All distances will descend west past the old historic Bullitt homestead remnants. This trail is super fun, fast, and technical! While the Half and 12k runners will then be enjoying excellent post-race refreshments, the 50k runners will get to enjoy their loop again! 

While we mark our courses very well, this is a complex trail network with lots of intersections. We encourage you to study the map before the event. Please see the color-coded map below for the order of trails in which you will run, and email us if you have any questions.
