Phoenix Scavenger Hunt & Urban Race

HTA Phoenix Wrap-Up:

We returned to Tempe/Phoenix (where it all began in 2005) and our racers were in for a treat. High Trek Adventure was the first adventure race EVER to use the Valley Metro Light Rail! Andrew Lappitt from The Amazing Race 13 raced! You never know who will show up!

High Trek Adventure Valley of the Sun could not have been pulled off without the fantastic human beings that are Vanessa and Jake from The Library. The Library is conveintly located in downtown Tempe and the staff is super nice.

We also want to thank Brian Miur of AZ Weekly and Gabi Kepes of Yelp Phoenix.

Thanks to all of our sponsors: Adventures 2000, College Times, NAKAD Kickball, Timbuk2 and Three Roots Coffee House.

More Info

You've registered for this crazy train experience of a lifetime, so what next? You and your team partner will be on a lively, one-day, Phoenix amazing race. This scavenger hunt will take you to unmarked checkpoints known as TREKpoints and explore Phoenix like you've never experienced it before as the puzzle unfolds. Our high octane energy adventure game might take you through the many exciting neighborhoods of Phoenix like Phoenix, Scottsdale, Tempe, and some nifty places you might not even know about!

On this sensational metro adventure, you'll solve clues ranging from pop culture to math (nothing tougher than 8th grade) to American history, anagrams, sudoku, and so much more. It's like a real life Trivial Pursuit game! Along the way you'll face exciting challenges like bowling a strike, identifying a flavor of ice cream or putting a puzzle together.

In case of a disaster including, but not limited to flooding, tornadoes, terrorism, High Trek Adventure will decide whether or not to cancel the event based on the safety of participants and staff. In the event of a cancelation, refunds will NOT be issued; risk is assumed by all participants. However, participants will have the option to transfer registration to a different 2009 city, excluding Championship Race.

*If High Trek Adventure does not provide participants with a swag bag then the first round of drinks is on us!
