At IronHike, we celebrate all forms of endurance endeavors and have great respect for the renowned, multi-venued 29029 Everesting events. As the newcomers in elevation-based endurance events, we proudly offer a uniquely intense experience with the IronHike Endurance Series, with fewer amenities and creature comforts than the 29029 Everesting events.

Designed to be a more self-reliant, completely self-powered experience for mountain athletes aiming to push their personal limits, IronHike emphasizes shared suffering and tribe-building. We value resilience, toughness, and camaraderie. IronHike is veteran-owned and community-driven, founded by trail enthusiasts and US Army veterans.

Both IronHike Endurance Productions and 29029 Everesting are dedicated to building strong communities and offering transformative endurance events. However, IronHike stands out by providing a more raw and unfiltered experience. As a veteran-owned company founded by trail enthusiasts, IronHike offers the same opportunity to push your boundaries in a supportive and cause-friendly environment as does 29029.

If you are seeking the gritty challenge of an Everesting event, please consider joining us as an addition to your plans to climb 29029. Join a growing tribe of IronHikers who have participated in both 29029 and our Everest or other elevation-based events.

It's you versus the whole mountain (up and down) and you against who you were yesterday.
