Once again, we’d like to thank the good people in South Dakota and Rapid City – in particular the officials and citizens of the host city of Primal Quest Badlands presented by SPOT. Attached is a letter from the Mayor of Rapid City, which exemplifies the rapport and relationship PQ develops with our hosts.
Adventure World Magazine and Randy Ericksen have put another web episode from Primal Quest Badlands presented by SPOT online, this time showing race winners Team Orion Health reaching the finish line and claiming victory. All told, the team covered more than 600 miles of brutal backcountry on foot, bike, and kayak, and in the end they were the best team in the Badlands.
We’ve got another web episode from Primal Quest Badlands presented by SPOT this week, courtesy of Adventure World Magazine and Randy Ericksen. In this episode, which is number 7 so far, we get our first glimpse of the Badlands themselves as Team OrionHealth and Salomon/Crested Butte push towards the finish line.
Our friends over at Adventure World Magazine have posted two more videos from Primal Quest Badlands presented by SPOT, adding episodes five and six to their line-up. Like the other videos, these were created by Randy Ericksen, who was on hand to chronicle the race.
Episode Five catches up with the teams in another transition area, where they are preparing to head out on another one of the long and challenging mountain bike legs.

"I am moved to write you and tell you how inspiring these Primal Quest race teams are. It is pure inspiration to see these teams pushing through the pain, the challenges, and the space between their team and the finish line, to reach their goals. At this point most are too tired to reply to our cheers and good wishes as we pass them on our commute - they are hell bent on achieving what they set out to accomplish!! These adventure racers are for me, personally and professionally, a forceful reminder to stay the course, push through the unknown and believe at my core, we have already crossed the finish line!"
