Sonoita Stargazer

Do you long for a weekend out on the range, where the burros and jackalope play? Then join BRAY at the beautiful Empire Ranch in Sonoita for the annual BRAY Sonoita Stargazer burro run! 

Sonoita

Arizona

This historic cattle ranch and western heritage historical education center is now part of the picturesque Las Cienegas Natural Conservation area, offering beautiful trails through the rolling grasslands of southern Arizona.

The course is largely compact single track over rolling hills, but keep an eye out for the local fauna, whether it be a herd of range cattle, a pronghorn, or a chupacabra. The course is approximately 3-4 miles, starting and ending in close proximity to The Airstrip, where we will have trailer parking and camping available. 

This is a no-frills race, meaning the entry fee is only $30, and participants receive a sticker and goodie bag for the cost of entry. Top three finishers, last ass, and golden ass will receive a token prize.
