I missed the signup at the open and got waitlisted for Poison Spider Mesa and the Hells Revenge night run. I'm thinking to combine Jaxx Trax and Cameo Cliffs into a single day, so I can add in hells revenge during one of the days. Is it easy to run Jaxx Trax with a group and then hit cameo cliffs? Or is there a lot in the area, so better to run them on separate days and then explore around the area after the group trail runs?

You could do them both in a day, but our guided trail runs are not paced for maximum efficiency -- they are paced for maximum enjoyment. That means people get out and take pictures, we stop for lunch, and we stop when there is an overlook to enjoy. So you may not start your second run until mid-afternoon. We also don't recommend running trails by yourself -- if you can get another 2 trucks to run with you, that gives you backup in case of mechanical failure or a stuck truck.

Thanks Matt! I agree about running with a group, that's why I'm hoping to go on poison spider mesa with a group, it's my target run this year and they were all full by the time I opened registration today. I'll see if I can't get my own group together for it if a spot doesn't open up.
