Online registration closes the Monday before the race. Late registration is available at either packet pickup location. Details are on the race website.
The Pass Mountain Trail Runs includes a 50 mile option that will have runners explore the little known but incredibly beautiful Goldfield Mountains, the super fun and windy Hawes Trail system via the Maricopa Trail, and still get to climb its namesake, the Pass Mountain trail, before returning to Usery Mountain Regional Park 50 miles later. Be a part of year one with us and explore some of these new trails!
Features winding trails throughout Usery Mountain Regional Park on the edge of the Goldmine Mountain Range. The 50km and 25km runners will run through Usery Mountain Park and then out into the Tonto National Forest, over the Pass Mountain Trail. 10Km and 5km runners will stay on trails within Usery Mountian Park.
In an effort to continually lessen our race footprint, we are expanding our cupless events to the Desert Runner Trail Series. We will have UltrAspire reusable cups available at registration and on race day or feel free to bring your own!
The Pass Mountain Trail Run is the second race in the Aravaipa Running Desert Runner Trail Fall Series. The Desert Runner Trail Series now has four point divisions: Quail (short), Roadrunner (middle), Owl (Trail) and Hawk (Ultra). The 5km race will score points in the "short" series while the 10km will score towards the "middle" series. The 25km race at Pass Mountain will score points in the "Trail Series" while the 50km race will score points in the "Ultra Series".
