Community Calendar

Lost Trail Bike Fest & Shuttle Extravaganza. Join our neighbors, the Bitterroot Backcountry Cyclists, for backcountry shuttle-access riding on the Warm Springs Trails, along with camping, food, raffle, and music at Lost Trail Ski Area.

Each August, Donnelly comes alive with the sweet scent of summer and the unmistakable spirit of small-town celebration during the annual Huckleberry Festival. This beloved tradition brings together locals and visitors to honor the iconic wild berry that dots our surrounding hillsides.

For years, the festival has been a highlight of the season, offering a full weekend of fun for all ages. Visitors can enjoy a vibrant parade down Main Street, browse artisan vendor booths, and sample an irresistible array of huckleberry treats.

The festivities also include live music, a community breakfast, a spirited fun run, kids’ games and activities, and plenty of opportunities to connect with friends old and new. The Huckleberry Festival is the perfect way to celebrate what makes our community so special.

Enjoy farm fresh produce and support local farmers twice a week during summers in McCall, Idaho!

Participants will run or hike a challenging 10K (6.2miles) course that takes them around The Crater Rings, a unique site featuring one of the very few examples of volcanic pit craters in the continental United States, and thus r The race course will follow a jeep road to the top of the shield volcano, then around the Crater Rings (see the course map below). Be prepared for some strenuous ups and downs (see the elevation profile below.) Adding to the challenge will be the desert heat, which is certain to conjure up images of the craters' ancient lakes of molten lava. Relief will come in the way of 3 hydration stations located along the course, the first at 2.1 miles, 2nd at 3.4 miles, and 3rd at 5.1 miles. Despite the challenges, this event is meant for anyone who might enjoy a supported outing in a very unique volcanic setting, whether they are a competitive trail runner, casual hiker, or anything in between.

We also have a 2.9 mile out-and-back course that leads to a spectacular view of the east crater. This is a great option for those who would like to experience the craters, but don't really want to travel all the way around them on a rough and challenging course.

Purpose:

The goals of the Crater Crawl are to encourage the values of low-impact non-motorized outdoor recreation and raise funds for Idaho Outdoor Association projects, activities, and educational programs. This year, your entry will also help fund Idaho Trails Association projects.
