Whitefish Trail Blazer Wrap Up
We would like to thank all the runners, event sponsors, and spectators who helped make the 2026 Whitefish Trail Blazer a huge success! We had 589 registrants across all race distances and hundreds of volunteers and spectators! Whether it was running to the summit of Big Mountain, down to Reservoir and back to the Village in the 50k or running with family and friends in the Family Fun Run at the Whitefish Legacy Center on Sunday, it was a weekend of lovely autumn weather, fall foliage, and a celebration of our local trails.
Huge thank you to our presenting sponsor, Flathead Running Company for bringing their expertise and excitement to this event! Additional thanks to our major event sponsors SK Farm Wetland Restoration LLC, Open Fuel, Ortho Rehab Physical Therapy, Explore Whitefish, and Goodwater Church as well as event sponsors Weyerhaeuser, Tamarack Cannabis, and the Flathead Beacon. Thank you to Colton Born for his fun videos and Saturday photos!
Thank you Whitefish Mountain Resort for hosting Saturday's 50k, and it was great be at the new Whitefish Legacy Center on Sunday! We are so grateful to our business sponsors for their help in putting on another successful community event and supporting conservation, recreation and education on the Whitefish Trail!
