Teams find hidden checkpoints on foot, bicycle and canoe. The beginner's race (5 hours) is designed for newbies and families, combining hiking, canoeing, biking and perhaps even some Amazing Race type challenges. Participants can do as much or as little of the course as they want. Our two other races (12-hour and 30-hour) are intended to challenge the more hearty adventurers with trail running, orienteering, mountain biking and paddling.
