Thirty-six all-women race teams just started the started the 2,000 kilometers 8 day race across Nevada and California deserts. The first couple days have been crazy — here is a look along the route.
We’ve mapped the checkpoints, which increase in difficulty based on color. A green checkpoint is marked on the course with a big green flag and an official from Rebelle Rally. For a blue checkpoint, there is a much smaller blue flag that in some cases may only be a Rebelle branded stake. A black checkpoint has no physical marking, and competitors must reach the target to get full points.
