Rush Creek Stampede

Cuddy Mountain is situated behind the Rush Creek Stampede, a fall race in Cambridge, Idaho, approximately 100 miles northwest of Boise. The event provides a half marathon and a 5K, allowing runners to select either a longer rural route or a shorter community race within the Rush Creek area. The course crosses the hilly terrain surrounding Cambridge, offering open views across the Rush Creek area instead of a city-street setting. Race proceeds benefit the Upper Country Education Foundation, and awards are crafted by Cambridge High School students. The event also connects to the town’s history: Cambridge developed after the Pacific and Idaho Northern Railway arrived, and the race now signifies over ten years of local education fundraising.
