The Scout Adventure Challenge is the country's premiere youth-based adventure race for those 14 and older. This 12-hour event incorporates all the traditional adventure racing disciplines: navigation, mountain biking, trekking, and kayaking, plus some special surprises. As with years past, this year's event will include an Adult division.


Basic Race Details:

  • 6th Annual Scout Adventure Challenge
  • Saturday, July 12th, 2008
  • Teams consist of 4 person teams
  • Youth, Adult and All Age divisions
  • Over $5,000 in prize giveaways.
Course Navigation:

Teams will use topographical maps, UTM coordinates, and the race instructions (which will be given to teams at the pre-race meeting) to navigate the course. The course will not be marked, but will include manned checkpoints.

In order to be ranked, teams must move together as a unit and visit designated checkpoints. The course and disciplines are subject to change due to weather, safety, or other unforeseen concerns as determined by the race director.

Course Summary:

  • Trek/Trail Sections: These sections will be held during the day and at night. The trek sections will be challenging many different patchs to finish the race.
  • Mountain Bike Sections: This section includes steep climbs, steep descents, and beautiful fireroads.
  • Paddling Sections: Details on the paddle section are forthcoming.
Equipment/Support:
  • This is a "Supported" race (i.e., each team needs to provide at least 1 crew person who can drive a vehicle)
  • Carpooling is strongly encouraged. There are a limited number of parking spaces available and additional cars will be charged for entry into a secondary parking lot and shuttle to the location.
Registration/Clinics:
  • REGISTER EARLY! Registration will be taken on a first come first serve basis. Please be aware that event registration is limited!
