Havasu Havoc

  • Green Arrows – Junior (3-miles) – A fun quick loop around the fair grounds, great for spectating (GPX | Strava).
  • Blue Arrows – Long (10-miles) – A jewel in the desert with spectacular views of the cliffs. The Water Shed Loop course starts out with a fast rolling climb before turning onto the spine and through the canyon. The singletrack is sure to keep a big smile on your face!
  • Marathon – Complete 4 blue laps for a total of 40-miles. A 3.5-hr cutoff means if you cross the finish line after 3.5-hrs you are finished and do not have to go out for another lap. You are not a DNF, just race finished.
