Baker Lake 50k
The Baker Lake 50k is a challenging 31.2-mile trail run held in the scenic Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest near Baker Lake, Washington. Starting and finishing at Kulshan Campground, the course features a mix of paved, gravel, and single-track trails that wind along the eastern shoreline of Baker Lake.
Runners experience rolling terrain with numerous rises and descents, crossing mossy footbridges, log bridges, and scenic suspension bridges over streams. The trail passes through old-growth forests regrown after an 1843 forest fire, offering views of Mt. Baker and diverse wildflowers.
Aid stations provide water and snacks, and free camping is available at the start/finish area, enhancing the event's welcoming atmosphere. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
