The run will be $8 and is an actual race distance listed on the registration button within Ultrasignup’s website.Registration for the kids include their own kid’s bib, finishers token/medal and option to purchase a kid’s tech shirt with Mesquite Canyon logo on it. Course Summary The Mesquite Canyon Trail Runs take place on rugged, single track trail with significant challenging climbs, incredible views, steep descents, large boulders, rocks, and desert vegetation. The courses offer a challenging but rewarding experience for all, from the beginning trail runner to the most

experienced ultra marathoner. The 50 Mile & 50 Km courses are designed for experienced trail runners since they travel through a hazardous (but incredibly awesome) section of trail/wash down Ford Canyon. Here, 50 Mile & 50 Km participants will be required to execute some downhill rock scrambling over the famed “White Tank” rock formations.
