CGRC Stevenson to Carson Ridge Run 10 Mile Run/Walk

The Columbia Gorge Running Club invites runners and walkers of all ages and abilities to embark on the 15th Carson to Stevenson Ridge 10-Miler. This point-to-point race goes up and over the scenic ridge between the towns of Carson and Stevenson, WA. It’s a stout climb in both directions – so much so that Backwoods Brewing (in Carson) named a delicious oatmeal stout after this event.

Where:
This year’s race event will start at the Skamania County Fairgrounds, 710 SW Rock Creek Dr, Stevenson, WA 98648 and go up over the ridge to end at Backwoods Brewing in Carson. There is not a shuttle to the start (or finish), so you will need to coordinate your own ride. It is highly recommended that you meet in Carson at 8am and carpool from there to the start.

Carpool details:
Meet in Carson at 8am here: https://maps.app.goo.gl/GixWTeuCRM23yqGFA. It is located on the west side of the Wind River Hwy, just past Backwoods Brewing. This is property owned by Backwoods where they have their rental cabins. It is a short walk from the pub to this parking location. There is simply not enough room in the parking lot at the pub for everyone to park, so please meet at this location. Everyone showing up there at 8am is looking to carpool, so make some friends and pile into as few vehicles as possible. It is about a 10-minute drive from there to the fairgrounds in Stevenson. When you arrive at the fairgrounds, park in this lot – https://maps.app.goo.gl/ntqDfc5KEeYU2kZB8. Race start will be just around the livestock building by the restroom.

Race bib pick-up will be at the fairgrounds near the restroom – be sure to be checked in before the race starts at 9am. If you bring a labeled bag, we can shuttle it to the finish for you.

Cost is $25 (increases to $35 on May 12)
