Hixon Summer Trail Series Night #2

Description:

The challenging 4-mile route begins with a 2-mile uphill climb on Vista Trail, offering runners multiple viewpoints of the city along the way. The course then connects to Vista 2, featuring switchbacks and a bridge feature, before concluding with downhill technical singletrack back to the parking lot.

The trail series operates as part of ORA Trails’ broader community engagement efforts. The organization recently launched its “Behind Every Trail” campaign, running through June 30, with a goal of raising $100,000 to support operations through financial contributions and volunteer time.

Registration for individual runs costs $25. The series emphasizes community building over profit, with proceeds covering permits, timing equipment, and participant amenities.

Post-race activities encourage participants to connect with fellow trail enthusiasts over light snacks and beverages, fostering the community atmosphere that defines the series.
