At this very moment, Primal Quest Director Don Mann, Course Director Chris Caul, and several others are on the 2008 race course finalizing permitting and course design. Stand by for an announcement on the location soon!

In the meantime, start wrapping your brain around these facts:

The summit of Mt. Everest is 29,026 feet, which after leaving base camp is just over 13,000 feet in elevation gain.

Primal Quest 2008 will have over 95,000 feet of climbing.

More facts to follow…
