THE

COURSE DETAILS

Obviously, it's an Adventure--too many details would spoil that. But in general, there will be

navigation, canoing, trekking (running or hiking), mountain biking, ropes and other challenges.

The team

that

completes all the checkpoints (or more than other teams) with the fastest time

will

win the race. There will be several checkpoints that are mandatory (transition areas), but

most

are not--meaning a team could choose to skip checkpoints and shorten the course for

themselves and still have an official finish--though probably not place in the top 10.

The navigation will require plotting of UTMs on a 1:24000 Topo map, basic understanding of

terrain features and distance measure. There will be very few rules of travel, teams will choose

their own route/strategy (with mode of travel specified for checkpoints).

Their will be ropes challenges on the course (weather dependent), including rappelling and

climbing. No prior experience is required. Other challenges are also likely
