July 11, 2026 @ 7:00 am - 7:00 pm
Produced by Northwest Endurance Events, run, walk, and climb one (25K) or two loops (50K) up and around Oyster Dome in the gorgeous Chuckanut Mountains south of Bellingham, WA.
Why Kill Bill? The tough ascent to Oyster Dome originally was referred to as Kill Bill Hill, not only a reference to its unforgiving nasty climb, but also tribute to a local ultra runner Bill Ball who used the rocky, root layered climb as a course route for Mt. Blanchard Ultra. So as a tribute to Kill Bill we are resurrecting Kill Bill Hill with a few twists. Come join us and charge up the British Army Trail as if you’re a soldier, so make it count and look good. Transverse Alternate Incline Trail with it’s solid vertical and sweet canopy covered single track. Explore Blanchard Mountain trails as you transverse the mountainside to Samish Bay, pushing up Kill Bill Hill, stopping at Oyster Dome. Down a freshly shucked oyster (it’s almost mandatory). See the sea and taste gems of the sound, all at the top of Oyster Dome. Because let’s face it, oysters are way better than GU. Will give you a shot of water to chase it down. Carry your oyster shell to the finish. We have a NO TRACE ethic!
