Coast Mtn Buckin' Hell spots open

Coast Mountain Trail Running said on May 18 that spots were still available for its Buckin' Hell race in British Columbia, using a social media post to market one of the few remaining openings in its 2026 calendar. The organizer said other events in its season had sold out and urged runners to register before entries and wave slots closed. Public race listings show Buckin' Hell is scheduled for July 25, 2026, in North Vancouver, with 35-kilometer, 50-kilometer and two-person 50-kilometer relay formats. The race is one of Coast Mountain Trail Running's named events in British Columbia, alongside races such as Survival of the Fittest, Alpenglow 100 and Squamish 50, according to UltraRunning Magazine's event calendar and Race Roster listings. The organizer's push comes more than two months before race day in a season where some peer events on its schedule have already filled. (trailrunning.ca) ### Where and when is Buckin' Hell being held? Saturday, July 25, 2026 is the listed race date for Buckin' Hell, according to Coast Mountain Trail Running event pages and third-party registration listings. The event is based in North Vancouver, British Columbia, and current listings place the start and finish at Mount Seymour Resort. Mount Seymour Resort is described in those listings as the venue for a course that climbs and descends through the North Shore Mountains. (ultrarunning.com) Coast Mountain Trail Running says runners begin near the top of Mount Seymour, descend roughly 1,200 meters toward the Seymour River, and then climb back to finish. ### What race options are still being sold? Buckin' Hell offers a 35-kilometer race, a 50-kilometer ultra and a two-person 50-kilometer relay, according to the event page. (trailrunning.ca) Coast Mountain Trail Running's listing also says the event includes a kids race of about 1 kilometer. Race discovery sites and registration pages describe the course as highly technical, with about 2,500 to 2,600 meters of climbing and descent depending on the listing. (raceroster.com) Those pages also describe old-growth forest remnants, bike-trail sections and named local trails including Baden Powell and Old Buck. ### What did the organizer say in its May 18 post? Coast Mountain Trail Running said on May 18 that Buckin' Hell still had open spots while other races had sold out this season, according to the social media post referenced in the event card. (trailrunning.ca) The post urged runners to sign up before registration closed and said wave slots were limited. Photos attached to the post showed course terrain and mountain views, matching the organizer's published description of the route through the North Shore Mountains. (trailrunning.ca) Publicly accessible event pages use similar language, calling Buckin' Hell one of the more technically demanding 50-kilometer races on the calendar. ### How much does registration cost? Race listings published by Findarace show Buckin' Hell pricing ranging from free to C$276.12, although the page does not break out each tier in the search snippet. (trailrunning.ca) The American Trail Running Association listing separately shows entry fees from $75 at the low end to $115 at the high end, which may reflect a different distance, timing tier or listing convention. Race Roster remains the main registration platform linked through public listings for the event. Because Coast Mountain Trail Running's own site was not directly accessible through web search in this session, the available pricing details come from third-party registration and calendar pages. ### What happens next for runners interested in the race? (findarace.com) Race Roster listings show registration is open now for Buckin' Hell, and Coast Mountain Trail Running has said entries and wave slots are limited. The next fixed milestone is race day on July 25, 2026, when runners are scheduled to start from Mount Seymour Resort in North Vancouver. (raceroster.com)
