The triad challenge is a one-day, cumulatively timed race. Participants work to conquer Coney Mountain, Mount Arab and Goodman Mountain, all located in the Tupper Lake area.

The three lower-elevation hikes that comprise the Triad Challenge appeal to all experience levels, including well-seasoned hikers, casual outdoor enthusiasts and families, according to Tupper Lake Rotary Club member and event organizer Sue Fitzpatrick.

“We’re excited to bring back the Tupper Lake Triad Challenge Race and offer an opportunity for everyone to enjoy our beautiful trails and vibrant community,” Fitzpatrick said. “It’s a chance for adventure and fun, all while supporting Rotary’s important projects in Tupper Lake.

Participants will tackle the mountains one after another; their round-trip hike times recorded by event officials. Those with the lowest total time will be honored at the post-race event at P-2s Irish Pub.

The post-race celebration will feature live music and awards for the top three finishers, along with the youngest and oldest finishers. Participants who complete the challenge will receive a Tupper Lake Triad patch.

Individual entries are available for $45; groups can form a relay team of three for $135. A military discount is available to honor those who serve.
