# Event Details

- **Event Name**: The Ozark's Mountain Challenge
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 01 May, 2027 at 07:00 am – Sat, 01 May, 2027 at 07:00 pm (-05:00)
- **Event Description**: We have partnered with the Missouri State Parks (Sam A. Baker Park) & Platinum sponsors Missouri Highlands/VisitMo/Walmart/FCC Behavioral Health/PBRMC to see who can hike 23 miles and 7,980’ elevation gain (The height of Mt. Olympus) right here in the beautiful Ozark region in Missouri.

Each participant will have twelve hours to hike EIGHT times up Mudlick Mountain. Mudlick Mountain has the second highest vertical increase in the entire state of Missouri. Hiking eight times up, the vertical ascent is equal to hiking Mount Olympus in the state of Washington. 

Why did we choose Mt. Olympus as a benchmark? Although in Greek mythology Olympus meant “mountain” or “gathering place of the gods”, in modern times Olympus represents “a place or state of joy and happiness.” The total hiking distance is approximately 23 miles. 

Each hiker will be shuttled back down to the base after each successful ascent. The route is Mudlick Hike Only Trail (available on All Trails app), to Mudlick Equestrian and Hike Trail, to the spur to Fire Tower Trail. This challenge is NOT a race. It is the external (physical) YOU versus the internal (mental) YOU.

Other participants & race volunteers will be encouraging you along the way. If you can't complete all 8 times/23 miles, we will celebrate your ascent achievement; even if it is one time (nearly 900' elevation change and 2.8 miles)! If you competed in the past and insist on "beating last year", you can ascend additional times after you "Conquer Mt. Olympus", but you still have 12 hours.  We will crown a Alpha Lizard (male) and Apex Lizard (female) who complete the most ascents.
