2021 Rib Mountain Adventure Challenge - Winter Edition:

The Rib Mountain Adventure Challenge - Winter Edition is Wisconsin’s only winter adventure race. Soloists and teams of 2-4 members will run, bike, and snowshoe their way through a beautiful wintry course using a map and compass to find the way. Team members must stick together throughout the duration of the race. With route choices and obstacles to test your team’s physical strength and mental resolve, this winter race will be fun for beginners and seasoned athletes alike, bringing a new dimension to adventure racing!

Course Information:

This race will be held regardless of snow conditions. Fat tire bikes may be used but are NOT required, as the biking portions of the race will take place on roads and plowed bike & pedestrian trails. Snowshoes are only required for the snowshoe section (optional for other sections) and may be rented by indicating so during registration.

We will also hold a virtual navigation clinic prior to the race to help those new to orienteering.
