Point-to-point from Marble Mountain Sno-Park (Cougar, WA) to White Pass High School (Randle, WA) across the Mount St. Helens blast zone and the Gifford Pinchot National Forest. For 2027 the race publishes 207.9 miles with 45,563+ ft of ascent and 46,880 ft of descent; the completed 2026 edition (the source for all aid-station, cutoff and segment detail in this file) was 200.1 mi with 44,082 ft gain / 45,563 ft loss. The course is re-permitted annually by local, county, state and federal land managers and has changed length before due to trail/road closures, so the 2027 numbers may shift again before race day.
EDITION CAVEAT: everything below this line about mileage, elevation, terrain and station identity (except the top-level 207.9 mi / 45,563+ ft / 46,880 ft figures, which are the 2027 event listing's own numbers) is drawn from the 2026 Runner Manual and the CalTopo course map it links, because no 2027 Runner Manual exists yet. See _meta.notes for the full wildfire/reroute investigation. Terrain per the 2026 segment descriptions: volcanic ash/boulder field out of the start, exposed ridge walking through the blast zone with 'best views of the course,' old-growth singletrack, multiple unbridged river/creek crossings (three mandatory wet-crossings between Chain of Lakes and Klickitat), two short paved road sections (~2 mi each), and two mandatory out-and-back spurs (Quartz Creek aid station, 1.8 mi each way; Twin Sisters aid station, 2.7 mi each way; Pompey Peak, 0.2 mi each way). Weather per the 2026 eligibility section: 30-100 F range typical, with lows recorded to 7 F (-14 C) overnight in the high country, driving the mandatory insulating-layer and headlamp gear list. The 2026 published gain (44,082 ft) and loss (45,563 ft) do not equal the 2027 figures; note also that the 2027 listing's ascent figure (45,563) is identical to 2026's LOSS figure, which may be a copy/paste artifact rather than a new measurement (flagged, not resolved, per _meta.notes).
A 200+ mile point-to-point endurance run through the Cascade Mountains of Washington, starting at Marble Mountain Sno-Park near Cougar and finishing at White Pass High School in Randle. The course crosses the Mount St. Helens blast zone (erupted 1980) and the Gifford Pinchot National Forest: lava fields, ridgelines, old-growth forest and multiple river crossings. Run under a 107-hour cutoff with sleep and rest counting against the clock. The second leg of Destination Trail's Triple Crown of 200s.
Organized by Destination Trail, founded by Candice Burt, who created the first point-to-point and single-loop 200-mile ultramarathons in the US in 2013 (Tahoe 200). A third-party results database states Destination Trail has held the Bigfoot 200 since 2015; we could not independently confirm the exact inaugural year from an official Destination Trail page.

Nobody sees it until we have read it. No account, no sign-in.
This changes nothing on the page on its own. Somebody checks it against the race first.
We want the address of the file the race publishes, not the file. We download it from there so the page can say where the line came from.
We read every one of these and we write back. Every fact here carries the source it came from, and the way a wrong one gets fixed is a person checking it against what you tell us.
NavRun builds your pacing from your own training, then turns it into a plan your crew can follow: when to leave and where to park.
