Racers ranging from age 7 through 68 convened from 19 states to take on the secret course that awaited them in the Stevens Point area in this year’s Rib Mountain Adventure Challenge. Racers paddled the Plover River and Lake Emily, biked on the Tomorrow River Trail, Green Circle Trail, and Standing Rocks mountain bike trails, and trekked at Steinhaugen Recreation Area, Jordan Park, Schmeeckle Reserve, and Standing Rocks Park.

For the first time, the Rib Mountain Adventure Challenge, the largest adventure race in the United States, will be taking racers to Stevens Point over Memorial Day weekend.
