trailrunning is a team sport
For families that means keeping everyone engaged while runners are in race mode! We heard from parents in our community and are trying a few new things this year - Let us know what you think. Our goal is the same as always, to make Trailfest meaningful to all who participate - it’s YOU, our community, and our environment here in Mammoth, that make Trailfest what it is!
