The Broken Arrow Skyrace represents the first official Skyrace to occur in California. This iconic race encompasses more than just running. It is a true test of how fast you can move through the mountains. It races up mountain trails, scrambles across ridgelines and up gullies, and speeds through Tahoe’s forests. It provides a rewarding challenge for everyone who wants to test themselves in the mountains. The race will start in Squaw Valley and romp through the mountainous terrain surrounding the area.
