2008 Primal Quest Expedition Adventure Race
Notes From The Field - Day 3
Kraig Becker / 26.06.2008
- Teams are hoping to hear from friends and family from home, and comments are welcome. Go to your favorite team's page on the PQ website and leave comments and words of encouragement.
- The top three teams continue their assault on one another and the course today, not missing a beat with the removal of today's whitewater course. Team Nike was the first team out of CP15 and are now heading into the Crazy Mountains, with Merrell in pursuit, and TeamPeakAdventure.com not far off the pace. Rumor has it that Nike left their snowshoes back at the TA however, and when last scouted, the Crazies were still covered by a deep layer of snow.
- Teams were happy to see their bikes for the first time today after a number of long trekking sections, but arriving at CP13, where they were expecting to hit the Yellowstone River, they were told that their first bike ride would last longer than they had first expected.
- Not everyone was happy to stay off the water today. Word from the course is that Team BaseCamp was hoping to test their skills on the Yellowstone, and even Dart-Nuun and Team Bones were a bit disappointed that the river was closed as well.
- Finally, the course change today was clearly a good idea, as it took PQ teams straight down Adventure Lane.
