About the Little Colorado River Gorge 10K
The Little Colorado River Gorge 10K is an out and back on the same route the half marathon takes, starting and finishing at the Shadow Mountain Viewpoint in Little Colorado River Gorge Navajo Tribal Park on the Navajo Nation. The route follows dirt roads, double-track, the historic Highway 64 and singletrack trail above the gorge, and the footing is rocky, with some sections difficult between miles 2 and 4 of the 10K. The half marathon route has drop-offs of about 1,500 feet at a couple of locations, so the race is best run as a trail race. It is held on the Saturday of race weekend, about 9.5 miles west of Cameron, Arizona, on the road to the east entrance of Grand Canyon.
