THE MAMMOTH TRAIL RUN 🦣🏜️ A Chronicle of Grit and Wonder!

​October 10, 2026 | High Hope Ranch | 3353 County Road 2009 I Glen Rose, Texas 📍

Attention all trailblazers, pioneers, and audacious gentlefolk! 🤠 The Mammoth Trail Run is calling you out to the untamed expanse of High Hope Ranch. We’ve carved out a thousand acres of rugged Texas Hill Country for a true test of your mettle. Gather the herd and prepare for an expedition that’ll leave you with legendary tales to tell. 🌵

A word to the wise: Some areas of the course feature downright STEEP inclines and declines. Trail shoes with heavy traction are highly advised to keep your boots firmly on the trail! 🥾
