Event Description

Mountain Madness: The Ultimate Team Orienteering Challenge!

Teamwork, strategy, and adventure await in Mountain Madness—Colorado’s most exhilarating team orienteering trail race!  In this two-hour, all-terrain challenge, teams must rely on map and compass skills—no GPS allowed!—to navigate the rugged wilderness and collect as many checkpoints as possible before time runs out.

There’s no set course—only the raw beauty of Colorado’s backcountry and the strategy your team brings to the race. Stay together, choose your route wisely, and decide whether to chase high-value checkpoints deep in the mountains or rack up points with closer, faster finds.  The terrain is unpredictable, the clock is ticking, and teamwork is everything.

Self-sufficiency is key.  Your team must carry all necessary supplies, adapt to changing conditions, and push your limits through forests, ridgelines, and rocky trails. Whether you’re seasoned orienteers or first-time adventurers, Mountain Madness will test your endurance, navigation, and ability to work as a single unit.

Does your team have what it takes? Grab your map, trust your instincts, and embrace the madness!
