Butterfield Canyon Marathon
The Butterfield Canyon event offers trail races that start and finish at Butterfield Trailhead Regional Park and run through Butterfield and Yellow Fork Canyon. The course uses single-track trails that pass through dense foliage and provide views of the surrounding mountains. Runners encounter steep rocky climbs and single-track downhills.
