Description:

The Castle Peak 100k is arguably one of the most difficult trail races in the country. Masked by it’s spectacular beauty, this is a true mountain race unlike any other on the ultra-running circuit. A rare point-to-point course offering genuine support with fully stocked Aid Stations that is staffed by Truckee/Tahoe locals and experienced ultra-running volunteers. The race starts near the historic Emigrant Trail in Truckee, California at the Stampede Reservoir boat ramp before ascending (and descending) over 16,000′ at an average elevation of 7,300′ above sea level. The course travels over roughly 95% of demanding single-track trails, while journeying through some of the most dramatic scenery and vistas the region has to offer.
Not in 2022, back in 2023.
