The Mesquite Canyon Trail Runs take place on rugged, single track trail with significant challenging climbs, incredible views, steep descents, large boulders, rocks, and desert vegetation. The courses offer a challenging but rewarding experience for all, from the beginning trail runner to the most experienced ultra marathoner. The 50 Mile & 50 Km courses are designed for EXPERIENCED TRAIL RUNNERS ONLY since they travel through a hazardous (but incredibly awesome) section of trail/wash down Ford Canyon. 50 Mile & 50 Km participants will be required to execute some downhill rock scrambling over the famed “White Tank” rock formations.
Mesquite Canyon is the seventh and final race in the Aravaipa Running – Desert Runner Trail Series, Arizona’s premier trail & ultra run series.
In an effort to continually lessen our race footprint, we are expanding our cupless events to the Desert Runner Trail Series. We will have UltrAspire reusable cups available at registration and on race day or feel free to bring your own!

Mesquite canyon is a quad burner for sure. The terrain is pretty technical. The entire time I’m constantly reminding myself to pick up my feet and not trip on the rocks. The scenery is gorgeous and you get a glimpse of the beauty of the white tank mountains.
