The Baldface Scramble is a challenging trail running event held in the White Mountain National Forest in Chatham, New Hampshire.

The course is known for steep ledges, panoramic mountain views, and technical single-track trails.
Runners start at Baldface Farm off Route 113 and encounter significant elevation gains, with the 29K race climbing over 6,200 feet. The event emphasizes safety with mandatory gear requirements due to variable mountain weather. After the race, participants enjoy a festive atmosphere at the finish line in a large field.
