The NORCAL AR Series was created in response to the growing demand from Bay Area athletes looking for more, high quality events
to participate. Our goal is to make each event fun, challenging and minimize
the typical "AR hassles" - like providing a support crew.

For 2009 we’ve got 10 events at 5 different venues. Event options range
from 4hr Sprint courses for beginners to 9-10hr events and a full-blown
24-36 hour finale event for more experienced teams.

Event Overview
Almaden Quicksilver is a beautiful park loaded with trail options. However, don't let the easy navigation fool you into thinking this is an easy course. The conditions can get very hot -- fast!

For 2009 we will have both a Sprint race and a longer 9hr endurance race. Are you ready to take on the challenge? Can you beat the defending champion Team Brunton by ARNavSupplies.com? How about '08 solo superstar Kent Ryorchuk?

This is a popular event in a great, easy-to-get-to location. Register early as we will cap the number of teams allowed to participate for each event.
