Silver Lead Creek 5K

Silver Lead Creek 5K is a free community 5K Run/Walk at Little Trout Lake Park in K.I. Sawyer, Michigan on June 13, 2026. The event is part of a grand re-opening after construction at the park was completed. The Marquette County Planning Division and Forsyth Forward are listed as the organizers for the re-opening and the 5K.

The event is open to all ages and abilities. Participation requires registration, a signed waiver, and a race bib. Participants should locate the Forsyth Forward table to retrieve their bib before the race. No pets are permitted in the race.

The course uses the new gravel trails and follows an out-and-back format in two separate directions. Trails are described as wide, and runners are asked to keep to the right when not passing to avoid oncoming runners. The course has just over 100 feet of elevation gain.
