What Makes It Great

A 13-mile loop starting and finishing at Watson Lake Park through the Granite Dells. The course mixes fast singletrack, technical granite rock scrambles, and steep ascents along the Peavine Trail and newer Storm Trails. Features an out-and-back section to the Aqueduct Checkpoint before returning across the dam to the finish. Equal parts scenic and challenging for a half-marathon.
