About the Moosehorn Ghost Run Half-Marathon and Relay
The course runs entirely on the dirt and grassy service roads of Moosehorn National Wildlife Refuge, car-free and well marked. It rolls through meadows and flowages, climbs gradually toward Snare Meadow, then descends past a mill flowage before heading back to the start. Moose, deer, and bear are genuinely possible out there, not just a tagline.
All race-day activity happens outside at a building on refuge property. A potluck follows the race, and the post-race spread is the traditional way this event closes out the morning. Packet pickup runs on race morning before the start, with an early start option available for those expecting a longer finish.
