Race Description:

The Rib Mountain Adventure Challenge is an adventure race in which teams of 2-4 members run, bike, and paddle their way through the rugged and beautiful Central Wisconsin wilderness using only a map and compass to find the way. Team members must stick together throughout the duration of the race.
