This was my first Urban Adventure Race and my whole team (a group of 4) all enjoyed it. It was a great way to spend three hours as freinds running around Hollywood. We learned a few things and we all found it challenging and fun. Would totally do it again
This was my first time, and even though I had thrown my back out and could only hobble slowly (and had to squat every few minutes to relieve the pain) we had a LOT of fun. We were in Hollywood, which is an area I go to enough to conciser myself fairly proficient with, and yet I found myself opening my eyes to things that I'd never noticed before. From etchings on the wall to historical buildings, I not only became more aware of my surroundings, i learned! What a great way to spend an afternoon. The only problems I came up with were the lack of signage. It was hard to find the start and end. Hollywood/Highland is a big place and it has nooks and crannies that offshoot everywhere. When they say "food court" they mean an odd nook that's actually not attached to the main food area at all (and guess what, there are 2! One for the start, one for the end.) It would be nice if they sent a map with their start and end locations called out specifically.
honestly, it was okay. mostly it was factual stuff... we definitely had fun, but to me part of what makes a scavenger hunt fun is having to DO things in order to get the next clue... or to figure out the answer to a clue. This isn't part of this hunt. BUT we had fun, a great morning...
