Other Info

Gear List:  We tried to keep the gear list as basic as possible.  Part of the adventure especially when the weather can be sketchy and the terrain gets rugged is planning your gear appropriately.  Although there is no paddling in the race you could still get wet as there will be water in the many ravines you will be entering and exiting throughout the race.
