Entry Confirmation List

CIA Lite is a Beginner Adventure Race with a 4-hour cutoff. All rules of the 12-hour Central Indiana Adventure apply except the gear list.

The CIA Lite gear list is much smaller and less costly, so that beginner racers can sample adventure racing.

No ropes events will be part of the CIA Lite race.

Navigation and plotting will be greatly simplified for CIA Lite. A basic understanding of park trail maps and topographical maps (including 1:10,000 and 1:15,000 1:25,000 scale) will be needed.

CIA Lite starts at 10 AM on Saturday, September 30. CIA Lite participants can check in Friday evening or Saturday morning from 8 to 9 am. Teams strongly advised to ARRIVE EARLY to allow ample time to get maps and race information. An important pre-race meeting will be held at 9 am.
