Race Schedule › Black Mountain Friday
Escape the crowds and #optoutside on Black Friday and experience unbeatable views of Las Vegas as we celebrate by running Black Mountain’s full 404 loop in the Sloan Canyon NCA.
One of our toughest races of the year, Black Mountain Friday takes you up the steep north slope of majestic Black Mountain only to send you flying back down the western slope for over 2,000 ft of climb in under 7 miles.
Race Distances
Black Mountain Friday only comes in one flavor: 10K with vert!
10K Course
6.5 miles, 2100 ft of vertical climbStarting from the Shadow Canyon Access Point heading east along Anthem East trail, the course will turn onto the 404 trail and the climb will begin! As a primitive trail, the northern section of 404 will be an uncut trail with markers guiding the way, allowing you to hop and scramble over the native geologic features of Sloan Canyon. After ascending to the very top of Black Mountain, the course heads down the existing 404 trail — a steep but fun descent to the finish line.
