Welcome to the Cloud Cap mountain runs on Mt. Hood, presented by Salomon! Cloud Cap takes runners on an incredibly scenic tour of Mt. Hood’s wild northern slopes via three different loop-style course options— an “all-terrain” mountain marathon and half-marathon using trails and the rugged Cloud Cap Road, plus an entirely trail 10K distance.
Staged at the charming and quaint Cooper Spur Ski Area, each course showcases many of the mountain’s most iconic and historic sites throughout the Cloud Cap-Tilly Jane Historic District. Exquisite views abound of the volcano’s ever-present summit, flanked by Cooper Spur and Polallie Canyon to the south, the Langille Crags and Eliot Canyon to the north and of course the massive icefalls of Mt. Hood’s largest glacier, the mighty Eliot, making this a truly awe-inspiring, one-of-a-kind race experience!
