RAID THE NORTH EXTREME 2010
TUESDAY APRIL 20, 2010
BC’S WEST KOOTENAYS TO HOST INTERNATIONAL EXPEDITION RACE
(Rossland, BC) -- BC’s West Kootenays has been selected as the destination for the 2010 edition of the internationally acclaimed expedition race Raid the North Extreme, to be held September 4-12, 2010. The event is organized by Frontier Adventure Sports & Training Inc (Frontier), Canada’s premier adventure racing company.
Frontier first hosted Raid the North Extreme (RTNX) in 1999, and it is now one of the world's most recognized expedition-length adventure races. Renowned for its focus on real wilderness, real navigation, and real adventure, RTNX is a traditional wilderness adventure race. Over 6 days, co-ed teams of four will navigate a 500km+ expedition over an unmarked route by canoe, kayak, mountain bike, fixed ropes, and on foot.
“It’s hard to imagine a better place for a wilderness expedition race than the West Kootenays,” said Geoff Langford, RTNX Race Director. A pristine region of rivers, lakes and waterfalls; alpine meadows and jagged snow-capped mountains; beaches and hot springs, the Kootenays grabs at the adventurer’s soul.
The West Kootenays are world-renowned for unbeatable mountain biking trails, including Rossland’s Seven Summits Trail, named one of IMBA’s Epic Trails. And of BC’s seven national parks, four are in the Kootenays.
