Flagstaff Sky Peaks

Description:

The Flagstaff Sky Peaks Mountain Runs features some of the most spectacular running in Arizona. All races kick off with a breathtaking climb that tops out at 11,500 feet at The Arizona Snowbowl Ski Resort and explore a mix of single track along the AZT under canopies of color changing Aspen, along with varied mountain terrain within the ski resort. This year we are excited to introduce a new 50 Mile distance that circumnavigates the San Francisco Peaks! All races will start and finish at the Humphrey’s Yurt located at Arizona Snowbowl. Join us for an amazing fall trail run through the Arizona high country!

The all new Flagstaff Sky Peaks courses offer a mix of distances for all runners looking to experience high altitude mountain running set above beautiful Flagstaff, Arizona. These premiere mountain races start and finish at the Humphrey’s Yurt at the Arizona Snowbowl perched on the Western slope of the San Francisco Peaks. With abundant steep terrain at the Arizona Snowbowl going up to 11,500 feet in elevation this is the perfect venue for jumping off into Flagstaff’s trail running paradise. All courses feature single track along the Arizona Trail as well as mixed terrain at the Arizona Snowbowl.

We are excited to offer a new 50 mile distance that circumnavigates the entire San Francisco Peak mountain range utilizing a connection of Coconino Forest trails and dirt roads. Our ultimate vision for this event is to help create a complete single track loop around the San Francisco Peaks dubbed the “Peaks Loop Trail”. See details below for all of our 2018 course offerings!
