The 24 Hour race will be heading to the Cohutta Mountains with a start at The Ridge at Stanley Gap. Check-in starts at 3:30 pm on Friday night with instructions and (pre-plotted) map followed a pre-race meeting at 5:00 pm.
All teammates must be present to check-in and receive instructions. The later you are the shorter the time to prepare.
A staging area will be set-up at check-in for bikes, bins, and paddling gear. For the 24HR race, we will be transporting your paddle gear, bikes, and (one per any size team) 27-gallon bin. Team labels for bins and bags will be supplied by us.
There will be a bearing course added to this year's race so your team will need to have a basic understanding of how to shoot a bearing and count steps.
We supply canoes, paddles, and PFDs for both the whitewater and canoeing sections.
Teams will be allowed to bring their own paddle gear, however, they must be in a paddle bag.
Water and snacks will be provided at every TA, however not guaranteed so bring water purification tablets. There will be many stores along the route for refueling. After the first night, tents will be set up at TAs for team rest.
