The Salomon Coast Mountain Trail Series (CMTS) is a collection of quality, challenging, professionally-run trail events in world class destinations around Vancouver's North Shore and the Sea to Sky Corridor.
Whistler Alpine Meadows
Welcome to the Whistler Alpine Meadows race. Quite simply some of the most fantastic terrain you could ever hope to run on, with the added bonus of being in the world class destination of Whistler, BC.
The Whistler Alpine Meadows trail races (WAM) encompass all of the absolute highlights of what Whistler has to offer. Many of the alpine trails have in fact only been constructed over the last few years, and runners will be treated to alpine meadows, waterfalls, wildflowers, glaciers and mountain views as far as the eye can see. Did we mention you'll get to run to a glacier and back? Yeah, you get to run a friggin' glacier! We thinks that's pretty cool...get it...insert sad pun noise.
Local Kevin Titus has been instrumental in not only constructing this network but in helping us bring this concept to life. Kevin's vision, as a lifelong resident of Whistler, is on full display via his crowning achievement, The Skywalk Trail, which is prominently featured in our 25km, 55km and 110km race distances.
The Whistler Alpine Meadows races have it all and are not shy on the elevation profile side of things either:
- Our 12km distance has 650m / 2100ft
- our 25km distance boasts 1500m / 5100ft
- the 55km race has a challenging 3350m / 11,000ft!
- the new 110km distance lays out a staggering 6000m / 19,500ft!
Buckle up!

Deferral/Cancellation Policy
Bibs are not transferrable to another runner under any circumstances.
Once a race distance is sold out, that’s it – there will be no new spots, no waitlist, and no transfers.
Up to 30 days before race day, we can offer a 100% deferral of fees, towards another NOT YET SOLD OUT, CMTS event. **
Between 14 to 30 days before race day, we can arrange a 50% deferral of race fees, towards another NOT YET SOLD OUT, CMTS event. **
** Deferrals are only applicable for one calendar year from the race you transfer out of (meaning the race entry can be deferred to any OTHER race, but not the same race one year later). Entries can only be deferred a single time, to a single event.
Within 2 weeks of race day - No refunds. No deferral. No exceptions.
At any time, you can request to drop down in distance within the same event. There is no cost or refund for dropping down. We do not allow runners to move up in distance.
In the event of cancellation of the event for reasons including, but not limited to, weather, forest fires, acts of nature, war, strikes or other circumstances, Ridgeline Events will provide a limited refund and discount towards the same event in the following year. See full details here.
Thank you for your understanding and adherence to our race policies. We look forward to seeing you on race day!
