A punishing Siskiyou loop with 10,500 feet of climbing, PCT ridgelines, and deep watershed terrain
Other trail races within 195 miles
The SOB 100K is a challenging loop through the rugged Siskiyou Mountains, starting and finishing at Mt. Ashland Lodge at 6,500 feet. From the high country, the course descends steeply into the Ashland Creek Watershed via the Time Warp trail, winds through Ashland's backcountry watershed trails, and begins a massive 4,000-foot climb back to the PCT via Wagner Glade Trail and the primitive Split Rock ridge. The second half follows the classic SOB out-and-back along the Siskiyou Crest with panoramic views of Mt. Shasta, the Cascades, and multiple ranges before a final summit of Mt. Ashland and a steep descent to the finish. A Western States 100 qualifier and UTMB-indexed event.
