This event will feature a 10K Hike, 10K Race, Half Marathon Race, and (in honor of the Park turning 50) a 50K Race! All races will be timed and all finishers who sign up in time will earn a sustainable wood medal.

50K Map!
If you love scenic trails but not technical terrain or hills this is your race. The four loop course keeps you close to aid and restrooms making it a great first or fastest 50K. The trails run by the group, individual, rv, and cabin campsites if you need a mid race break. There will also be an area by the start/finish if you want to set up your own aid table.
Food Truck!
All participants will receive a ticket for 2 tacos by the finish line!
Awards!
Top 3 male and female overall will receive a custom award. 1st place in each age group will win a prize!
Camping!
If you want to make a weekend out of it, we will have limited tent sites available in the group camping area. Send us a message after you sign up if you want to reserve one!
Photos!
Last Light Productions will be onsite taking professional pics and video so be ready to look like you know what you're doing out there!
