Marble Mountain Sno Park Cougar, WAVolcanic is a rugged (and we mean that), remote, and challenging 50K+ and a 25K on an active volcano in Washington state. The 50K course runs on the single-track Loowit trail, circumnavigating the entire mountain.

The 25K runners take a shuttle to the start near Elk Creek campground. This is legit hard. But […]
