Racers Embrace Adventure at Stevens Point

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.
