## Description

Sunday, December 13, 2026
Telegraph Trailhead, Yuma AZ

Dust off the festive season with a winter desert trail race at the base of the Gila Mountains. It's a fast, fun, rugged course for runners and families of all ages.

The Events

6-Mile Trail Run · 9:00 AM
A scenic out-and-back on single-track through the Sonoran Desert around Telegraph Pass. Expect rolling dirt trails, a punchy climb and big mountain views. Challenging for seasoned trail runners, still approachable for first-timers and power-hikers. An aid station at the base helps fuel your way up.

Kids' Fun Dash · 8:45 AM · FREE
Got little rams in training? Our 1,000-foot dash is a flat, non-technical loop at the start area, just before the main race.

What's in It for You

Bragging rights for conquering Yuma's most-loved mountain
Desert-ready swag
A finisher drink ticket for our favourite local brewery in historic downtown Yuma
Lucky draw prizes and a prize for the best dressed "festive in the Wild West" costume!

Run for a Reason

Hosted by the Caroline Lott Jessen Foundation, a 501(c)(3). All net proceeds go to the Yuma Crossing National Heritage Area for trail building and marking in Yuma's East Wetlands, increasing access to safe green spaces.
