EARLY MORNING SUNRISE RUN!!
A couple months ago, my wife posted in our Arizona Facebook Group about thoughts for a Sunrise Run.
Well with yet another over 110 degree day and more coming, the time is NOW (well... Saturday Morning the 22nd) for that run! You might even call it a reverse night run.
We will meet at the (Updated) FIRST staging area at the Four Peaks Trailhead off highway 87 (33.66925, -111.49452) at 3:30-3:45AM (YES AM), air down and be on the trail at 4:00-4:15AM. If the sunrise time of 5:30 is correct, we should hit the overlooks to Roosevelt Lake and 4 Peaks right around sunrise. We’ll watch the sunrise, have a snack and head back down to the staging area where we started to make it an easier drive back home.
Four Peaks is an easy trail that has amazing views and is friendly to all Bronco configurations. There are some nice climbs and descents, and the road does get narrow in places along the ledge.
Remember, we will be starting at night so if you are not comfortable with night runs or have never been off-road, this is not the run for you.
Make sure you bring the following in addition to your regular gear.
• Water (Whatever you think you will need, double it)
• GMRS Radio (we will use channel 7 (462.7125))
• Chair(s) if you want to sit down or a blanket.
• Coffee if you like (and whatever you need to make it)
• Snack for the sunrise.
Who’s in? Please make sure and respond here if you are going or head over to the Arizona Broncos Facebook Group and reply. We’d love to see you there.
