What is this?

The Mt. Rose Hill Climb is a fundraiser for Washoe County Search & Rescue, a non-profit team that provides year-round technical Search and Rescue services to the Washoe County community and surrounding mountains, rivers, lakes and deserts. https://www.washoesar.org/ Join us on this 10 mile, out-and-back course following the Mt. Rose Summit Trail to the spectacular 10,776' summit of Mt. Rose! The trail cuts through National Forest lands and the Mt. Rose Wilderness, passing beautiful scenery, waterfalls, and views of Lake Tahoe, Reno, and surrounding peaks. The race takes place entirely on single-track mountain trail, with a staggered start to allow racers to spread out.
