Best In The Desert competitors experience every type of terrain the land offers, including vast tracts of desolate desert, beautiful mountainous regions, and the mysteries of the Old West and Nevada’s historic gold mining towns. The terrain is tough, the events are always action-packed, and the sport requires serious endurance. However, the experience is as rewarding as it gets.
