Race format

Teams of two to three and some solo participants navigate with map and compass while traveling on foot, by bicycle, and by canoe. The 18-hour event runs across the May 2-3 date range; most teams are expected to reach the cutoff time before visiting every checkpoint. Rankings are based on points collected at checkpoints, with the team reaching the most points declared the winner. The MISSION Lite 4-hour event uses a shorter gear list, simpler navigation, and does not require map plotting. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
