Adventure race was Epic
The ZipZone eight kilometres up Princeton Avenue in Peachland was the site of one of the tasks in the recent 540-kilometre Epic Adventure Race, a six-day adventure race organized by Hoodoo Adventures that included disciplines such as trekking, trail running, mountain biking, kayaking and canoeing and rappelling..
Teams of four had to use a map and a compass to navigate their way through the arduous course only revealed to them hours before, non-stop and without support.
As part of the race, teams arrived at the Zip Zone between noon and 8 p.m. last Sunday, zipped across the Deep Creek Gorge on Canada’s highest freestyle zipline and then rappelled down the face of the canyon into the icy waters of Deep Creek. From there they hiked out of the canyon and continued their race.
