Registration is live! Tug Hill Outfitters is hosting a fun, challenging, yeti themed adventure race on Saturday, January 28, 2023, in Osceola, NY.
There will be 2 – 3 hour (snowshoe or cross country ski races) and 2 – 8 hour (snowshoe or snowshoe/ski races).

A long sleeve performance race T-shirt, 1 set of maps (per team with the option to purchase an extra set during registration), post race snacks & pizza, hot chocolate, and one craft beer per person, is included in the registration price. Team sizes can range from 1-6 people (cap of 4 people for adult teams, but families can race with up to 6 people).This race has something for everyone, from families and newcomers, to competitive adventure racers and orienteering teams who are looking for a fun challenge in a cool place! If you’re into trail running, hiking, geocaching, treasure hunting, or have seen Eco Challenge Fiji on Amazon, this race and the sport of adventure racing are for you! We’ve got some serious fun in store for you, from a lively prologue to some exciting on course surprises! Are you yeti?
