The Broken Arrow Skyrace, presented by Salomon, is a four-day, nine-distance event held at the world-famous Palisades Tahoe ski resort.

On June 19-22, 2025, elite and recreational participants will experience an unforgettable trail running experience “where the mountains meet the sky.” Each distance celebrates the beauty of Lake Tahoe, the Jewel of the Sierra Nevada.

Designed in the vein of classic European Skyraces, the Broken Arrow Skyrace represents a unique style of mountain running characterized by off-trail scrambling on steep terrain and featuring massive amounts of vertical gain and loss…at altitude....with exposure, hand lines, a ladder, and dramatic (up to 40 degrees) snow slopes thrown in for good measure!

The Broken Arrow Skyrace features nine distances: a 46k, 23k, 18k, Vertical K, 11k, Triple Crown (the Ascent/23k/46k), the Iron Crown (IFC/23k/46k), the Iron Face Challenge, and a kids race. These races are unique in California as most of the terrain is above the tree line. Runners are treated to spectacular views of Lake Tahoe’s emerald-blue waters and Palisade Tahoe's unmistakable high-alpine terrain.

Elite and recreational participants run and then celebrate together with first-class food, craft beer, music, seminars, films, and fun activities for the whole family.

PLEASE NOTE THAT REGISTRATION OPENS AT 9 AM PST ON MONDAY, DECEMBER 9th, AND CLOSES AT 11:59 PM ON JUNE 10th
