The Trailblaze Challenge is a 26.3-mile hike where participants can tackle the terrain of the Silver Falls State Park - all in one amazing day! This is a hike, not a race, and caters to all levels from novice to advanced outdoor enthusiasts.
As well as being an extraordinary physical test, the real challenge is to raise much-needed funds to grant the wishes of children in Oregon & SW Washington with critical illnesses. Now more than ever, hope is essential. Make-A-Wish is committed to ensuring that no eligible child waits to experience the hope and joy that a wish brings.
By supporting the Trailblaze Challenge, you will help Make-A-Wish America grant even more wishes this year nationally.

Charlotte, 5
"Children like Charlotte need a wish because it gives them hope … It made her forget about the bad times, living in the hospital, the needles, the pain, the teas — it gave her the hope that we couldn't. To have this wish made her believe that there is good to be found in the world, too."
Estela, Charlotte’s mom

"The wish has brought so much joy to David's life. He now has something he can look forward to every morning. He can physically touch it, hold it and see it, and that brings him so much hapiness."
