Idaho Mountain Trail Ultra Festival (IMTUF) McCall, ID   Sep 19–20, 2026

Join us in the beautiful resort town of McCall, Idaho for a 100 mile race that is alpine to the core. Starting and finishing at Jug Mountain Ranch, the race will tackle the trails and summits of this premiere mountain playground. Crossing 8 high passes and gaining around 22,000 feet, this world class course was crafted to be tough and breathtakingly scenic. Qualifiers: IMTUF will continue to be a Hardrock 100 qualifier, as it has since 2012. The race will also be a Western States 100 qualifier as it has for several years. These qualifications make IMTUF a coveted finish.

Warning!!! This is a serious race. IMTUF is known to have a committing feel. You are many miles and many hours away from help, if your body or mind fails you. Though we are a qualifier for HR100 and WS100, we strongly urge you to be focused on this event 100,000%, as overlooking it for next year’s goal race will be a punishing mistake. This is a post-graduate level ultra that must be respected.

Jughandle 20 Mile: Think of this one as being IMTUF’s nasty little cousin. Packing a steep 5000′ gain and loss and a cross country summit push to the top of Jughandle Mountain.
