They travel via motorcycle, quad bike, car, or truck over extreme terrain in three countries in South America. Competitors and support crews come from more than 50 countries to challenge their mechanical, driving, and orienteering skills.

Today, Jan. 12, riders of bikes and quads, the only ones in the competition allowed to cross into the country, will be competing in the Stage 8 between Uyuni and Calama in Chile.
