Event summary
Join us for the exhilarating Top of Tamarack event on Saturday, September 27, 2025, in the stunning backdrop of Donnelly, Valley County! This unique experience combines physical challenge with a profound purpose, as participants run, hike, or bike their way up the majestic mountain. Choose from distances along the service road, with the ultimate goal of conquering the 15-mile round trip and a breathtaking 2,900-foot elevation climb to the summit. Whether you're an elite athlete or a weekend warrior, this event is designed for everyone, ensuring that there’s no DNF (did not finish) – only personal triumphs!
As you tackle the trail, each mile post will reward you with a special token, symbolizing your mental strength and resilience.
