West Michigan Trails (Our Charity Partner – they receive a portion of each paid registration)
West Michigan Trails is a 501c3 that connects communities through world-class pathways where neighbors meet, families gather, and relationships thrive. More than just scenic routes, their trails are the backbone of vibrant communities—linking schools, downtowns, and natural spaces while transforming everyday encounters into meaningful connections. With every mile, they’re not just building trails; they’re strengthening West Michigan’s community bonds and creating spaces where people naturally come together.
These guys have been running fun and competitive adventure races (orienteering, paddling, cycling, and yes – puzzle solving) for well over a decade. They also run some other events like the infamous Dirty Duel, which is the only trail race in the U.S. that offers a choice of courses (a hard 3.4 mile, and a downright diabolical 3.1 miles) with the same start, finish, and timing. If you want a challenge and a GREAT event, check them out. You won’t be disappointed.
Keira Rose is my niece. She is also a pretty darn talented artist who will be honing her skills in college this year. She created the Cloaked Treasure logo for us, which we think is pretty awesome. Follow her! And reach out if you have any special projects you could use are artist’s assistance with.
