Wy'east Wonder

Wy'east Wonder

Wy'east Wonder is a point to point trail race on ridgelines east of Wy'east (Mt Hood). The courses run mostly along Gunsight Ridge and Surveyor's Ridge and offer repeated views of Wy'east as the route moves from the mountain's southern side around to the east. The routes are net downhill overall, with a large portion of the descent occurring near the finish.

Distances offered:

• 50 mile: 7,600 ft gain, 10,600 ft loss.
• 50K: 4,300 ft gain, 7,200 ft loss.
• 50K 2 person relay: team relay option introduced in 2026.

The event is based at Red Barn Park in Parkdale. There is no parking at the start or finish; participants and spectators use parking at Red Barn Park and shuttle transportation to the start and back from the finish. Spectators may ride shuttles to watch finishers, but runners have priority seating on return shuttles. Relay second leg runners start at the Aquaduct aid station and must provide their own transportation to that location.

Course pages include detailed aid station mileage, cutoffs, and crew access information. Finish line provisions include food and non alcoholic drinks, awards for top finishers by gender and non binary category, three deep age group awards, raffle prizes, and a commemorative pint glass for every finisher. The organizers acknowledge that the races take place on the traditional homelands of the Confederated Tribes of the Warm Springs, the Wasco, and the Wishram Tribes.

Weather can vary around the mountain and between the start and finish locations. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
