The 2026 Western States Experience | Full Trip Recap

The boys from Baltimore (Thomas and Karl) met up with the Dirt Division (Taylor and Alex) out in beautiful Olympic Valley for our third outing at Western States with Hoka. However, this time we also invited a fan, Maria Haynes, to join us for all the action. From the Chuckwagon Beer Mile to High Camp to driving all around California, relive (or experience for the first time) the 2026 Western States Endurance Run. Special thanks to Roadsurfer for the mobile accomodations. Interested in renting a Roadsurfer RV for your next summer trip?
