Cascade Crest

Cascade Crest is a 100-mile trail event held in Easton, Washington, with the Easton Fire Station listed as a location point. The course includes more than 23,000 feet of total climbing, about 32 miles on the Pacific Crest Trail, passage through the 2.3-mile Snoqualmie Tunnel, and runs through areas of tall trees and varied trail terrain.

Lottery registration was open from December 14 through January 11, with lottery results posted January 21, 2026. Registration is listed as closed as of January 11, 2026.

Participation requires completion of at least eight hours of trail improvement work in the participant’s area between August 1, 2025 and June 14, 2026; volunteering at a race does not qualify as this trail work. Entrants must also meet a race qualifier: either prior completion of a 100-mile trail run or completion, between January 1, 2026 and June 14, 2026, of an organized or self-supported trail 50-miler or longer that includes at least 6,500 feet of climb and is finished in under 16 hours. Self-supported qualifiers must submit a Strava file. Completion of any previous trail 100-miler is acceptable evidence but must be submitted via the race qualifier form.
