The Glacier Challenge

We're putting off The Glacier Challenge for hopefully only one more year. Thank you very much to the community, our sponsors, and the racers, for the years of support. Supporting The Flathead Youth Home has always been our number one mission, so if you're so inclined, please head over to their site to make a donation. If anyone in the Flathead Valley is interested in race directing for this event in 2022, please reach out to us! [email protected]

Some might say the 4 mile kayak leg of The Glacier Challenge felt long. Others might be preparing for much more! hahaha https://www.mensjournal.com/adventure/extreme-gear-what-you-need-to-kayak-across-the-atlantic-20140508/

Nomad has been onboard with this race since the very beginning. Every year they continue to help financially and physically. If you like the buoys that guide us on the kayak & canoe leg of The Glacier Challenge or you need a secret spy vehicle, both are happening right here in the Flathead Valley :) http://ow.ly/wKTP30rvKGk

The Glacier Challenge has been around since 2002 and originally ran through parts of the North Fork. The concept is the same but the course is constantly evolving. This year the first run will start at City Beach and climb over 1000ft to the Whitefish Trail above the Reservoir trailhead. Are you up for the challenge?
