Wy'east Wonder
Wy'east Wonder is a weekend trail race based out of Red Barn Park in Parkdale, Oregon, held the weekend of June 18–19, 2027. The event offers the following distances and formats:
- 50K
- 50K 2-person relay
- 20K
The 50-mile race will not be held in 2027 due to the 2026 Grasshopper fire; the 50K and 50K relay will run on modified courses and a new 20K has been added. All races start at The Hub, by the Aquaduct aid station. The course is point to point and generally net downhill on Mt Hood's eastern side, using ridgeline single-track with frequent views of Wy'east and areas of wildflowers.
Logistics center on Red Barn Park. There is no parking at the start or finish; racers, volunteers, and spectators park at Red Barn Park and use shuttles to reach the start. Bib pickup occurs at Red Barn Park only and requires photo identification. Finish shuttles return runners to Red Barn Park; runners have priority on these shuttles and spectators may need to wait for a later shuttle. For the relay, the second leg begins at the Aquaduct aid station and there is no race-provided transport to or from that aid station.
The finish area includes post-race food and beverages, live finish results, an awards ceremony for top finishers including men, women, and non-binary categories, age-group awards, raffles, and a finisher pint glass for every finisher.
The event takes place on National Forest trails that are multi use; horses may be encountered. The organizers acknowledge that the races occur on the traditional homelands of the Confederated Tribes of the Warm Springs, the Wasco, and the Wishram Tribes.
