Tired of the racing without views? Run this out and back course on the old railroad  trail that was used to make Hoover Dam! The railroad has since been removed and  is now part of the Historic Railroad Trail that offers amazing views of Lake Mead and a very unique Hoover Dam overlook. You will be gazing at Lake Mead the entire event with some spectacular views!
