Jordan's Take
JoEllen's Take
Poison ivy still blistering...
8 hr unsupported race started with canoe, only 2 team members paddle while pulling/draggng 3rd team member across lake approx 2miles. Unfortunately the CP was hijacked by campers/hillbillies, so approx 90 racers looking for CP on penisula. RD signature obtained instead. Next special tests, team divided up. Conquered rock climbing wall, glacier (swim/climb/slide) and zip line. Lots of fun with thunder and lightning looming overhead. This first phase took approx 11/2 hrs. Next phase to TA for bikes--prob could have used road bikes, because most of ride was service roads or gravel. No single track, low technical ride, except for fresh gravel throughout "land mine for bikes". Trekking interspersed throughout bike section. River crossing 3-4 X on foot. CP s mapped out well. Long, laborious climbs; short, fast, fun, downhills. (with exception of speeding oncoming cars looking to make my teammates hood ornaments), Race conditions mid 80s with rain/storms early afternoon. Organized and well run race!
