The runs use single-track trails through protected desert landscape with hoodoo formations referred to as Goblins. The marathon/relay course is shown as two laps. The 10k follows a lollipop route using Lizard Foot and Buffalo Head trails. The 5k is an out-and-back that enters a grove. Course maps and GPX files are available via the organizer’s interactive route resources.
This is a cupless event; participants should bring their own hydration vessel. The event is chip timed and provides aid stations (mileages are approximate).
