This was Beast of Big Creek 2026!
Watch the recap video of the return of skyrunning to the USA and North America's only stop on the Skyrunner World Series.
While the American trail runners were playing summer camp in Silverton in Wales the “original running, adventure & music festival” happened. Sponsored by some of the biggest brands, including Salomon and Mammut, this ‘summer camp for trail runners’ is a fascinating concept, and I’m a bit surprised something like this hasn’t caught on in the US. And by me saying I am surprised that it hasn’t caught on, I mean, it’s happening for the first time in California in October of this year. But no lineup or sponsors are announced yet.
