Overview
Devil’s Gulch offers a rugged escape deep into the Ponderosa forests and high ridgelines near Wenatchee, WA. This event features a half marathon, a grueling 50 miler, and an unforgiving 100 miler that will test your endurance, mental grit, and hydration strategy. The course blends rocky, steep technical trails with smooth singletrack and sweeping views of the eastern slope.
From red rock hoodoos to remote meadows and flowing descents through Devil’s Gulch, this race rewards effort with beauty. It's not for the faint of heart, but generous cutoffs and strong community support make it an epic weekend in the mountains.
