The Two Rivers Adventure Race returns in 2024 as Rootstock Racing's premier one-day adventure race, combining mountain biking, foot travel, packrafting, and map-and-compass navigation. The thirty-hour event will serve as a qualifier for the 2025 US Adventure Racing Association National Championship and the inaugural championship for the Adventure Racing World Series (ARWS) North American Region. The stakes at the race are high: the winning team of the premier division will earn a free entry into the 2025 Adventure Racing World Championship in British Columbia, Canada, and the top US team in the division will earn a free slot to USARA Nationals!

This year's race offers everything you have come to expect from Rootstock events: challenging navigation, rewarding checkpoints, plenty of strategy and route choice, and a fun and welcoming community. It is a course ready for top competitors, and it is accessible to newer racers excited to get their feet wet in overnight racing. While the Two Rivers is not a beginner race, we design the course with all caliber of teams in mind, using a "modified rogaine" format. All teams must complete a designated mandatory route which requires less navigational ability and is short enough that all teams should have time to reach the finish line with adequate baseline fitness. For more experienced teams there will be additional, optional checkpoints to challenge even the fastest teams and best navigators.
