Cache Creek to Game Creek Trail is an epic trail run with a 45 year old history! The Start is below Snow King's upper parking lot. Park in the upper parking lot behind SNOW KING and walk down to the start. Join us at the dead-end portion of Cache Creek Dr. (no parking at the start). The race heads out Cache Creek Dr. to Cache Creek and up to the Game Creek bridge. Orange soccer cones and orange tape on trees mark the way. There will be a right hand turn across the bridge to the pass and down to Game Creek . Limited parking at the finish. We encourage locals to carpool pick ups. There will be a shuttle van or timing truck taking runners back to parked cars at the upper lot of Snow King if you don't have a way back to town.

We typically hand out the awards and refreshments at the GAME CREEK FINISH. We are working on a rendezvous after party for those that want to hang out together in Jackson on Saturday afternoon. And, a do it on your own Triathlon on Sunday called TRI the WEST. July 27, 2025.
