The Elephant Mountain Trail Runs, held in the rugged Sonoran Desert of Cave Creek, Arizona, challenge athletes with distances ranging from a 6K to a grueling 50-miler. Organized by Aravaipa Running, this late-winter race immerses runners in a landscape of towering Saguaro cacti, rocky technical climbs, and sweeping views of the Tonto National Forest.
