Race Introduction

The PCT: Bunker to Bonneville 50K (hosted by Columbia River Gorge Running Club) is a challenging but amazingly scenic point-to-point 31 mile trail run on Southwest Washington’s side of the Columbia River Gorge.  The course is primarily on the Pacific Crest Trail, running north to south, starting at Whistle Punk Trail Head, on the Gifford Pinchot National Forest and ending in the City of North Bonneville, Washington. We have changed the course this year a little bit to accomodate parking at the start of the race.   This also allowed us to increase the limit to 100 runners.

 

There will be a special prize for anyone willing to climb the rock at the 3 Corner Rock aid station!

Announcements

• Happy 2013! We are looking forward to another great event this year.  There are a few major changes. We changed the course a little to accommodate more parking at the start.  There won't be a poker game this year.  Last year the first 6 runners broke the course record and made this course a "real race"!  Don't worry, there is still a lot of fun and scenery for us mid-packers!   Bonneville Hot Springs won't be sponsoring us this year, so no showers or swim fun.  Families who are waiting for their loved one to finish the race should still take advantage of the fun and relaxation the Hot Springs offers!
