The second annual 10.3mi Golden Gate Canyon Trail run is Sunday,
August 1, 8:30am, at Golden Gate Canyon State Park. The park is 15mi
W of Golden, and 10mi S of Nederland.

The race is on a mix of single-track and 4WD roads (closed to
traffic), with a 1mi dirt road stretch and a short paved section. You
run through pine and aspen forests with great views of the divide and
Indian Peaks area. There is ~2,000' of climbing. Some of the terrain
is very steep and rocky. This includes a 600' climb, in 3/4 mi, after
6.5mi, with some rock scrambling at the top.

Last year's winners were Darrin Eisman, 1:20:40, and Lisa Goldsmith,
1:38:35.
