Camp Lug-A-Chug
Camp Lug-A-Chug is a volunteer weekend organized by Go Beyond Racing near Cougar, WA. Volunteers carry water into remote aid stations on the volcano to support the race.
Participants meet at Marble Mountain Sno Park, lower lot, each morning to divide supplies and hike into the aid stations. Each day's roundtrip hike is about 9 miles. Organizers provide food after each hike. Loaner backpacks are available and trekking poles are recommended. Participants are expected to bring a large backpack if they have one, plus the snacks and water they will consume on the hike.
Attendees may camp nearby on Friday and Saturday nights and are welcome to stay for evening social time. There is no participation fee; the activity is a volunteer opportunity. The weekend includes a light competition with a free race entry awarded to the person who carries the most weight relative to body weight and another for the person who carries the most combined weight over two days. Participants can join for one day or take part on both days. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
