More video from Primal Quest 2008. In the first clip we have Team #18, Brunton, subtly weighing in with their feelings on the GPS issue. The second clip reminds us that there is no crying in adventure racing, even on riverboarding sections courtesy of Team Xtreme Couture. In the third clip we get a scouting report on the course, and thoughts on Primal Quest from a young fan, and finally PQ Water Director Josh Galt makes a GoPro promo video.

All videos shot with the GoPro Hero3 Digital Camera. 

 Team 54, Werewolves/MPGear.com continue to post in their excellent blog of the race, with good updates on the progress of their team and general information on the course. Yesterday they posted this video of two team members, Tom and Paul, getting rescued from an island on the Gallatin River when whitewater became a little too wild. The footage was shot with the Werewolves’ GoPro Hero 3 Camera.

Major props to PQ River Director Josh Galt for getting the Werewolves, and others, back to shore safe and sound. 

GoPro is one of our segment sponsors at this year’s Primal Quest, and they have outfitted each team with a Hero 3 camera to capture some great moments out on the course. This video is some of those moments from the first day of the race. The teams featured in this clip, include Team Number Twenty-Nine on the first two clips, followed by Team Towanda/Sepracor/RWG. Clip 4 is of Team GOGRP and finally we end with a shot of Team AdventureRacingConcepts.com having some fun in the snow. 

For the past few days we’ve posted photos and video from sections of the course, and we’ve even described it with words, but today we can show you the entire course through the magic of YouTube and Google Earth. If you thought the course sounded tough, wait until you see what it looks like!

Wondering why teams were pulled off the Gallatin River today halfway through the paddling and riverboard sections? Then wonder no more. Just check out this video and all will be made clear.
