We say good luck to you. The team is grizzlytours.com - Team: Tony Bateup, Paul Chaplow, Keith Riley, Lisa Savage, they are #24 and still going strong.

Primal Quest is Here

The ultimate test of human endurance, selfless teamwork, and relentless determination – Primal Quest is the world's toughest Expedition Adventure Race and is coming to Southern Utah starting on June 25. it's a 500-mile wilderness race lasting up to 10 days across remote parts of southern Utah (same region that the 1995 Eco-Challenge).

During the race, co-ed teams of four will navigate through confusing networks of rock canyons, trek through triple-digit desert heat, climb to altitudes of 12,000 feet, paddle whitewater rivers with Class III rapids, swim through frigid slot-canyon pools, and tackle rope courses with thousands of feet of ascending and rappelling. Along the way, they’ll sleep only three to four hours a night, deal with blisters and heat illness, experience wild hallucinations, and receive no outside assistance. Competitors must carry their own food and water, make their own bike repairs, and meet strict cut-off times for every stage. In other words, it's just like a regular multi-day camping trip where everything goes wrong.

Keep in touch in which team is leading, what team could not endure the torture no longer.
