Telegraph 'Ram'page Trail Race
This event takes place in Yuma at the base of the Gila Mountains and uses single-track through the Sonoran Desert around Telegraph Pass. The main trail is an out and back route with sweeping desert views and an aid station at the course base that also services the final stretch. Course support includes porta-potties at the start and aid station, first aid trained volunteers, and ATV access for safety. The field is limited to 150 runners to protect the trails.
Children aged 10 to 13 must be accompanied at all times by an adult on the trail. A separate kids course is a flat, non-technical loop at the start area; younger children complete fewer laps according to age.
Distances and formats
- 6 Miles - scenic out and back on mostly single-track
- 1,000 ft (300 m) Kids' Fun Dash - flat loop at the start area
Entry fees and logistics are stated for each event, with the main trail entry carrying a fee and the kids dash offered free. The event is hosted by the Caroline Lott Jessen Foundation, a 501(c)(3), and net proceeds support the Yuma Crossing National Heritage Area for trail building and marking in Yuma's East Wetlands. Pre-race packet pick-up is scheduled at Prison Hill Brewing Co. the day before the race. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
