Event Information
Starting at 9am, this Prediction Series run has traditionally had one of our largest turnouts, thanks to the runners from Canon City who show up for this one. A truly beautiful run this is a challenging four mile romp through the canyon lands south of Canon City. This is your chance to traverse rocky single track and ford icy streams in late November. The scenery is stunning, so watch the trail, and you will be fine. The hilly trail winds around the junipers and through the stream twice.
Directions: From Pueblo stay on Highway 50 as it goes thru Canon City, at the western edge of town, but before you reach "Old Max" turn left (south) at 1st St. Stay on 1st St until you reach a fork in the road (about a mile)and veer to your right (sign says Temple Canyon to right), go a short distance and you will see the parking lot on your right and the runners. Afterwards we have breakfast in Canon, traditionally at Mr. Ed's.
