Details
Limited to 500 entrants, the Crater Lake Rim Runs Marathon &
Half Marathon takes place among some of Oregon's most breathtaking
scenery, around the rim of Crater Lake National Park. All race courses
-- including the full and half marathons and the 6.7-mile walk --
follow around the rim of majestic Crater Lake at altitudes ranging
from 5,980 to 7,850 feet above sea level. Needless to say, the rugged
mountains make for a very challenging race with gorgeous views.

Weather & Climate
With temperatures that average between 46°F and 83°F in
August, Klamath Falls can swing from cool to warm weather in the
summer. Rainfall tends to be rare, as
precipitation averages less than an inch during the month. Snowfall in
Crater Lake National Park is usually heavy and nearly year-round,
however.
