ECO-Challenge - [1999] Argentina VHSRip h 265 torrent

Adventure teams from around the world race across a grueling and treacherous wilderness course in Patagonia, Argentina. Teams consist of four racers, at least one of which must be female, who are prepared to race around the clock in order to complete the 200 mile-long all-terrain course within 12 days.

Eco Challenge takes you to Patagonia, Argentina this year for the 5th Annual Discovery Channel Eco-Challenge adventure race. Perhaps the toughest Eco yet, the 197 mile course slices through diverse and rugged terrain in an area that boasts some of the most volatile weather on the planet. Competitors will navigate day and night, over glacier-clad mountains and through torrid whitewater, knowing that fierce winds and driving snow may force them to seek refuge in specially built snow caves stocked with supplies.

The wild and scenic landscape of Patagonia shifts abruptly, from mountainous terrain to arid lowlands, often with only 40 kilometers separating the Alpine from the Pampas. The four-member teams, with at least one female, will compete in the non-stop, punishable, 12 days of mountaineering, horseback riding, whitewater and lake kayaking, mountain biking and abseiling (fixed-rope rappelling) tests before the winners will be known.
