The Larix

The 2025 season brought the inaugural year of The Larix, a 10 km trail race that starts just shy of the base area and makes its way to the peak of Baldy Mountain. The Larix is named after the Latin for Larch tree, which loses it needles during the winter months, but during race time you can notice the tree turning a gorgeous fall yellow, similar to a typical Deciduous tree.
For the 2026 Season, The Larix is expanding. This year we are offering a 21km race and the same 10km race as last season that takes you through almost every trail that Baldy has to offer, from single track trail to wide open fields and double track. The views are not to be missed as this course takes you along the same 10k course and beyond.
There will be 2 aid stations on course. One aid station were you will pass through twice for both the 10 and 21km races. The 21km race will also include one circle route which you will pass through the same trail twice and then make your way across to the Sugarlump area. This season also brings professional timing with a gun start and a finish line right at the base area in front of the main lodge. We are looking forward to welcoming everyone to Baldy once again for the 2nd year of The Larix.
Sponsors this year: Bio Steel, Da Silva Winery, Backroads Brewing Co, Firehall Brewery, Good Protein, Abandoned Rail Brewing Co, & More!
