Riverboarding was a 2.5 mile section

Exiting the water with fins is harder than it looks!




Here I am taking my fins off but having a hell of a time because my hands and feet are so frozen I cannot function properly.




Running up the beach to get to the kayaks, the soles of my feet are so frozen I cannot feel the multiple rocks scattered on the beach. This is a problem because you want to keep your feet in mint condition when racing several hours.
The Kayaks to choose from....

 Start of the Orienteering Section, finally off on the run!

Start of the Orienteering Section, was waiting in line for the ascent. We lost an additonal 35 minutes waiting in line...  

Ascent up the cliffs edge! I am the one in the blue shorts at the top of the cliff. My teammates are already at the top.
