Hope Furnace Adventure Weekend
A whole weekend of adventure and a little something for just about everyone.
The Buff Betty returns to Lake Hope!
Exciting 6 hour adventure race for women only. Do not think you are going to show up and see a course marked with pink ribbons and bows - this is the real deal! That being said, we realize that the Buff Betty will be many women's first attempt at adventure racing and so we have designed a course that any reasonable fit and determined team of women can finish and be proud of. Remember - BUFF IS A STATE OF MIND!!!

TNT is our regularly scheduled Tuesday Night Training. All skill and fitness levels are welcome and you do not have to be an adventure racer to join us.

what is adventure racing?
Adventure Racing is a term given to competitions comprised of several rugged outdoor events occurring almost non-stop over a period of from several hours in the case of "sprint races", to several days in the case of "expedition" races.
Although there is at present no set format to an Adventure Race, most races include, mountain biking, trekking, rappelling, paddling and other challenging activities. Navigation is a key component as the course is not marked and teams must find their way across the wilderness using map & compass.
ambush adventure racing offers events that any reasonably fit individual can finish and enjoy. Our unique adventure racing formats challenge both the beginner and elite athlete, and FUN is the first thing we design into a course.
We hope that the experience we facilitate will provide many happy memories, but more significantly we hope that we can help the racer find those personal qualities that one only sees when pushing one's personal limits.
