TicketsNorth Bend, WA sits at the edge of the Seattle metro area, where King County Metro uses the ORCA card (also usable on Sound Transit and other regional agencies); ORCA cards can be bought/reloaded at Seattle-Tacoma Airport, transit stations, or via the ORCA mobile app, and contactless bank cards now work directly on many King County Metro routes. However, North Bend itself has minimal fixed-route Metro service, so this trail-race venue is effectively car access for runners.
