Join us for the exhilarating Portland Firefighter Stairclimb Challenge on Sunday, September 14, 2025, in the heart of Portland, Multnomah. This unique competitive event invites participants to conquer 40 floors and 800 steps of the iconic U.S. Bancorp Tower, also known as Big Pink. Firefighters will tackle this challenge while wearing over 70 pounds of full combat gear, including a Self Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA), showcasing their incredible strength and determination. Non-firefighter participants can join the excitement in regular athletic gear.

This event is not just about the climb; it's a powerful fundraiser in the ongoing battle against cystic fibrosis. Since its inception in 2009, the Portland Firefighter Stairclimb has brought together over a thousand firefighters from across the globe, raising over $1.2 million for this vital cause. Whether you're climbing for a title in the men's or women's category or supporting a loved one with CF, your participation makes a difference. Let’s unite to make CF stand for Cure Found! Don’t miss the chance to be part of this inspiring event!
