1-Race Parking/Shuttle Area 5:30AM-6:40am

TEREX across from Twin Falls Middle School
46910 SE Middle Fork Rd, North Bend, WA 98045.
Parking is available across from the school at the Terex visitor parking lot. Buses will pick up the runners in the bus pick-up area directly across the street from the Terex visitor parking lot entrance.
North Bend is about 30 miles east of Seattle on I-90 and the race parking areas are a few miles east of downtown North Bend, Washington.

To get there from Seattle: head east on I-90 to exit 34. At the end of the exit ramp turn left (NORTH) onto 468th Ave SE. Go about 0.6 miles and turn sharp RIGHT onto SE Middle Fork Road. The school is on the left in less than a quarter mile and the parking area in the Terex visitor parking is less than 100 yards up the road on the right.

Runners will want to park in the race parking areas and ride one of the buses to the start. The shuttle buses runners from the finish back to the parking area. Regular (8:00AM) starters should plan to be at the parking area between 5:30AM and 6:40AM. Buses will leave the parking area for the start between 5:30AM and 6:40AM. Runners doing the early start at 7:00AM should arrive at the parking area between 5:00AM and 5:25AM; the early start bus(es) will leave the finish area at 5:30AM.

2-The start 8:00am Regular start/7:00AM early start

Hyak Parking Lot, Hyak, Snoqualmie Pass, WA 98068.
Head east on I-90 to Exit 54 which is two miles past Snoqualmie Summit. At the end of the exit ramp turn RIGHT then immediately turn LEFT on a road that parallels I-90 heading East. Go about 0.4 miles then you'll have to turn RIGHT at a Department of Transportation maintenance yard. After about 50 yards you'll turn RIGHT again at the first road off to the right. Follow this road 0.1 miles to the Hyak trailhead parking lot. Park at the east end of the lot.

You'll also see small brown signs with white lettering directing you from the highway offramp to the Iron Horse State Park trailhead.

A daily ($10) or annual ($30) Discover Pass is required to park at the start area. Overnight parking at the start is not permitted.

If you MUST park at the start, you should arrive before 7:30AM (6:30AM for early starters) to allow time to pick up your packet and prepare to run. The bus shuttle does not return to HYAK, so please note that we will have one shuttle van designated for the very few runners who absolutely need to park at the start.

3-the finish

4655 SE North Bend Way, North Bend WA 98045.
From Seattle head east on I-90 to exit 32. At the end of the exit ramp turn LEFT (North towards Mt Si) onto 436th Ave SE. Go about 0.6 miles and turn sharp RIGHT on North Bend Way. In 0.6 miles you'll see a gravel pull-off on the right where SE Tanner Road meets SE North Bend Way. That's the finish area.

To get to the race parking areas from the finish, continue east on SE North Bend Way. Just past Ole Cedar Mill Mini Storage, turn left onto SE 140th Street. Continue 1.1 miles and turn left onto SE Middle Fork Rd. The parking areas will be on the left and right in less than a quarter mile. There is not ample parking at the finish. Please do not block the bus shuttle area and be aware that you may park along a busy road and walk to the finish area.
