Campbell Creek Urban hairball, low volume , high gradient, elbow bashing, knuckle nibbling, strain-o-rama, need I say more? This run is in Anchorage! Not run until the summer 1997 this little wonder makes you feel like your on an expedition for National Geographic without leaving town. Extreme caution - experts only, and bring some elbowpads. Not in the guidebook. |
