McCall Trailrunning Classic 2024 – McCall
July 12, 2024 - July 13, 2024
Free
When the word “Classic” is used there are two definitions that come to mind:
- Something judged over a period of time to be of the highest quality of its kind.
- Remarkably and instructively quintessential.
The McCall Trailrunning Classic fits into the second definition. It’s a showcase of what makes McCall, Idaho one of the most beautiful places on the planet as well as a great place to have adventures in the great outdoors. In its sixth year this race is a perfect beginner’s introduction into the more formidable IMTUF 100 that happens later in the year. With big views, high altitude peaks and legendary singletrack this should be a race that’s on your schedule!

The Legend of Bear Pete Course from 2015-2019, except a start at Pete Creek Trailhead instead of Burgdorf. Possibly the most loved and classic mountain running loop in Western Idaho. Big views throughout and plenty of action above 8,000′. Begin on the French Creek road, heading south. Climb up Nethker Creek to the south shoulder of Bear Pete Mountain and drop quickly north into Frosty Meadow for an aid station. Continue north on the Bear Pete Trail to the top of Bear Pete Mountain, then descend Pete Creek. Cross the creek just 100 yards before the finish line.

Jug Mountain Ranch
Just a few miles south of downtown McCall. Besides having world class gold and a fabulous restaurant JMR is the beating heart for the mountain bike & trail running community in McCall and the surrounding area. Why?
