This AR will include orienteering, mountain biking, trekking, and paddling for teams of 2 or 4. Teams will plot UTM coordinates for the checkpoints on the provided maps and then navigate their way through the course. Special challenges may be encountered along the way! Visit the race website for more details! Teams must bring or arrange for their own canoes. Support crews are not required. Free camping onsite. Come join in on the adventure racing fun! Are you ready? All participants are expected to be competent in basic mountain biking, paddling, and orienteering skills as well as possessing a fitness level suitable for 4, 8 or 12 hours of rigorous wilderness activity. The 4 HR course will be challenging, but the shorter length is perfect for new adventure racers wanting to try the sport for the first time. The 8 and 12 HR courses will be more challenging - BE PREPARED! All courses will be a modified rogaine format with points determining the winner. There will be some mandatory CP's but no specified order.
