Sasquatch Shuffle

Immerse yourself in the stunning fall scenery of Idaho as you lace up your running shoes and join us for the eighth annual Sasquatch Shuffle. Scheduled for Saturday, October 10th, this year's edition offers three distinct distances: a challenging 50k, an invigorating 30k, and a scenic 20k, all starting at 8 am sharp.
The event takes place in Ponderosa State Park, known as one of Idaho’s premier outdoor destinations. The park boasts trails that wind through lush forests and offer breathtaking views of the changing autumn foliage. As you navigate the 6.79-mile Sasquatch loop, each lap brings a new perspective on this beloved trail system.
This race is more than just a run; it's an opportunity to support local conservation efforts. All proceeds from registration fees go directly towards maintaining and enhancing Ponderosa State Park’s trails through Friends of Ponderosa and Endless Trails, both dedicated non-profit organizations committed to preserving these natural treasures for future generations. Your participation not only challenges you physically but also contributes significantly to trail work and advocacy.
On race day, expect a warm welcome from the organizers who are passionate about trail running and community engagement. The event promises an array of prizes and giveaways sourced locally from McCall businesses, adding extra value beyond your registration fee. You'll be greeted with enthusiasm and gratitude for every mile you run, fostering a sense of camaraderie among runners.
For those looking to enhance their experience further, consider signing up as part of a local running club. A new feature this year is the addition of a series-wide competition where each participant’s distance will contribute towards their club's overall tally. The winning group at the end of the season will be awarded with a special trophy and bragging rights among fellow runners.
Whether you're an avid trail runner or just looking for your first 50k experience, the Sasquatch Shuffle offers something unique and rewarding for everyone involved. Join us in October to celebrate nature’s beauty while making a difference in your community.
