The Lone Mountain Adventure Race is simply a combination of two navigation events. There is no UTM plotting and no watercraft section. Teams are comprised of 1 to 4 individuals. The teams start with the Bike-O. All of the bike checkpoints are optional. After teams complete the bike section, they continue to the Score-O on foot. All Score-O checkpoints are optional.

Scoring is based on one point per checkpoint visited. The winner is the team that visits the most checkpoints. Note that this is not a mass-start event. Teams are allowed to start at any time between 7:30 AM and 8:30 AM. There is a 5-hour time limit. There is a penalty of 1 point deducted for every 5 minutes after the time limit. For example, if the team starts at 8:30 AM, they must return by 1:30 PM. If they return one second after 1:30, the penalty is one point. If they return at 1:35, the penalty is still one point. If our example team returns 1 second after 1:35 PM, there is a two point penalty. Finally, if they arrive after 2:00 PM, they are marked DNF (Did Not Finish).
