Based out of Ghost Ranch, former home of Georgia O'Keefe, our runs will take you to the top of gorgeous mesa's, through stunning canyons, and past pristine high elevation forest.

Each run will be approximately 6-11 miles in length with anywhere between 1,000 - 2,000 ft of elevation gain over varied terrain.

Itinerary

Day 1: Day 1

We will meet you at the airport and take you to our home-away-from-home with a collection of cozy cabins perched upon the rim of the Crooked River Canyon for a light lunch and a chance to meet the rest of the group.

Later on we’ll head out for a late afternoon shakeout run on a nearby trail that weaves through fragrant sagebrush and juniper, with plenty of chances to peer over the edge to the wild river far below and a high likelihood of spotting golden eagles gliding along the canyon walls.

That evening we’ll kick back with dinner at the lodge, soak in the magical light of a high desert sunset and then get some rest – we’ve got an early start tomorrow!
