Black Canyon Donkey Derby 3, 6, and 9 Mile Races

The 3 mile course is designed for beginners and walkers. Mostly level and wide with only a couple of short inclines. Helpers and parents with youth are allowed ONLY on the 3 mile course and contestants with helpers will not be eligible for awards.

The 6 mile course is an out and back on the Black Canyon trail. This run has some steep rocky hills to negotiate with your burro partner. The views are wonderful so take a moment to enjoy. Boots are recommended but not required. Pack saddles are recommended but not required. You should carry your own water as there is only one aid station.

The 9 mile has two legs of out and back entirely on the Black Canyon trail. Passing opportunities are limited and we are sharing the trail with others.. Please be kind and friendly. We want to be good burro ambassadors. Pack saddle, pick, pan and shovel will be required on the 9 mile run. Boots for your burro are recommended but not required.
Please carry water and cell phone.

If for some reason you can't attend the live event switch your entry to this virtual one and email me your address. I will send you your swag and finish medal.
