ADVENTURE ON YOUR OWN TIME

PRICING

Registration is open!

Adventure On Your Own Time (AOYOT) is exactly what it sounds like.  Do an adventure when it is convenient for you.  So far many racers have expressed that they like the opportunity to do a course in a new area at a time that is convenient for them. Therefore, we are offering 5 courses you may do whenever you can get out there.  The courses never close.

Racers can register for PDF maps and complete the course when it is convenient for them.  Once you register for the course, details on the course and safety information will be emailed to you within 10 days of registering.  (Sometimes I am out playing in the mountains and do not have time to check registration in a timely manner.)

AOYOT 2024 course will be announced in 2024 by March.  Stay turned for more details. 

The older courses are from 2020, 2021, and 2022.  

2022 6HR Course: Pueblo County at Pueblo State Park. 

2020 6HR Course: Uncompahgre National Forest south of Grand Junction.

RACE UPDATES

All 5 courses are available.  Register and select one or all of the courses.  You will receive PDF maps and information in email no later than 10 days after you register (sorry, sometimes it takes me a few days to review the registrations).  The courses can be done when it is convenient for you.  Reporting results is not necessary, but feel free to share photos of your adventure.
