If you are thinking of doing the Pike’s Predicament 48 Hour Adventure Race, here are ten enticing facts about the race.
1) It is located in beautiful Colorado
2) It is May 18 to 20, 2018, just as the mountains are waking up for spring
3) Free camping at the host campground
4) You get to plot your checkpoints!
5) Your canoe is included in the race cost (center seats are not supplied)
6) You are allowed a 5-gallon bucket per person to resupply in the middle of the race
7) The race elevation is between 7500 and 9500 feet above sea level – not too high!
8) The race course is designed for all skill levels to easily do as little or as much of the course as you want to or can do
9) You will pass through ponderosa pine forests, stands of aspen trees, forest land that endured terrible Colorado wildfires several years ago, and mountain valleys with lakes and rivers.
10) Finally… Shawn and Dallas have shared with me their AR Directing secrets. You know this race will be good.
Do not wait too much longer to register. Registration will close May 3.
