Description

This route links the three highest summits of the Alaska Range: Denali (20,310') Foraker (17,400') and Hunter (14,573') by any route. This route is an excellent sample of all that the Alaska Range has to offer a runner, skier and climber: high altitude, complex ridge running, steep snow and ice, wide open glaciers, and three distinctly different Alaskan wilderness travel experiences. Before getting started on this trip you will need to apply for a Denali/Foraker permit.

Description

Towering more than 5,500' over the town of Gardiner, Electric Peak (10,969') is the high point of the Gallatin Range and one of the most iconic peaks in Yellowstone National Park. The standard approach to this peak is via the Sportsman Lake Trail, accessed from Glen Creek Trailhead in Yellowstone. This is a phenomenal half-day run that covers a wide variety of terrain. From open, rolling trail through sagebrush meadows and old-growth spruce-fir woodlands, to the windswept ridgeline and airy final scramble, this route constantly changes underfoot.
