Frost Centre Course: 4km Paddle - 15km  Mountain Bike – 5km Trail Run
Total Distance: 24km (expected finishing times: 2 to 4 hours)

The Frost Centre Course was designed to strike a balance between fun & adventure. It would be ideal for entry-level multisporters or adventure racers, or for more experienced participants looking for a challenging 2 hour race. A clover-leaf layout is used, boasting one central transition area making for a very spectator friendly event.

Championship Course: 16km Trail Run – 14km Paddle & Portage – 50km Mountain Bike
Total Distance: 80km (expected finishing times: 6 to 12 hours)

The Championship course was designed for the experienced athlete, or outdoor enthusiast looking to test their limits on a marked course through the remote backcountry. Completing this course would be equally enduring as a 1/2 ironman event, but even more challenging due to the technical nature of the sports involved.

Kids Race: 500m paddle - 2km Mountain Bike - 1km Trail Run (Suitable for kids aged 6 to 13. To register for the kids race, send us an e-mail with the childs name (info@logsrocksandsteel.com).

Canoes will be provided free of charge for the kids race.

Canoe & Kayak rental includes PFD, paddle and safety equipment, as well as delivery and pick-up from the various transition areas. *Note: Kayaks are no longer available to rent for the "Championship" course. In past years we've paid excessive damage fee's on rented kayaks used on the Championship course caused by dragging on the portages. Championship course participants looking for kayak rentals can view our links page, where we've listed numerous kayak suppliers in the area.

Accommodations Update (July 1, 2010): We'd previously listed accommodations available at our host site, however the Frost Centre recently closed (read more here: Minden Times Article) and we'll no longer be able to provide roofed accommodations on-site. Once we found out the Frost Centre was closing we immediately contacted the property owners, who have agreed to let us host the event on the property, but without access to the accommodations we'd previously been advertising. We apologize for any inconveniences this may cause. We will however, now be allowed to camp on the Frost Centre's property. Camping will be free of charge and restricted to designated areas. If you would like to camp at the Frost Centre you must pre-register by e-mailing us @ info@logsrocksandsteel.com. There will be port-o-lets available for campers, but no showers will be available, mind you, there is a very clean and inviting lake at your doorstep. Those still interested in finding roofed accommodations near the host site could try some of the following resorts/motels/b&b's, which are in close proximity to the Frost Centre:
