We like big buttes…how bout you?!
How it works:
The Big Butte Challenge brings people together to accomplish one common goal: to reach the summit of the 8 Buttes in Central Oregon. Between Memorial Day and Labor Day Weekend, participants hike or run each butte, on their own schedule, using custom maps to lead the way. After each summit, participants can visit the sponsored butte brewery and receive a pint on the house.
Update from past years:
Time Tracking
This year, we aren’t tracking or timing your summits, and we’ve significantly simplified the mapping and tracking tech. How fast you complete it does not matter. All that matters is you complete the routes, submit your summit (pictures or GPS from your phone, watch, etc.) and have a blast!
Beer Redemption:
A physical beer token is REQUIRED to redeem your well-earned pint from each sponsored brewery. Grab your event packet from the Haven Coworking Monday-Friday, 8 am-5 pm, and let the games begin!
Packet Pick-Up
Packet Pickup will be available throughout the challenge at The Haven during regular business hours: Monday – Friday from 8 am to 5 pm.
