RCCAR
The 1st annual ROCK Climbing Center Adventure Race (How did I get lost in a canyon?)
Description: RCCAR will start in the parking lot south of hwy 24 on 31st street. The gear you start with will be carried throughout the race. Racers are responsible for all their food and water on the course. Biking helmets are required and must be worn at all the roped events as well as when biking. There will be plenty of downhill which means plenty of uphill. The terrain ranges from roads to very technical/rocky. The whole course will be orienteered using clues, riddles and compasses. Awards and prizes/raffle prizes will be held right after the race in conjunction with the Red Rock Redpoint climbing competition which will be held the same day in Red Rock Canyon. Low priced good beers and snacks will be available at the awards.
Time: 8:00am registration 9:00am start September 13th, rain or shine.
Cost: $30/person.
Categories: team and individual, male, female and coed.
Disciplines: Rappelling, Tyrolean traversing, mountain biking, surprise event, orienteering, problem solving, running/hiking, rowing (gear provided).
Required Gear: Compass, biking helmet or similar, at least 1 liter of water/team member.
Optional Gear: Harness, belay device, rappelling gloves.
Time: 3-7 hours. This is a sprint race and all teams regardless of ability will be able to finish this course within the time limit. A course shortcut may be imposed on teams that are moving very slowly which is fine with us so don't use ability concerns to keep you from racing.

Harness, belay device and locking carabineer will be provided by the Rock Climbing Center if you do not have your own.
