Mountain Resort GPS Quest
Global Positioning System (G.P.S.)

Alpine Events moves team building into the modern age with a exciting new satellite based GPS Orienteering devices for a fun, exciting quest, set in the natural beauty of the Colorado outdoors. We even have themed events for this program that can take you to Survivor Island or other custom “quests”

Your group will be given a basic instructional course to familiarize themselves with a hand held tracking device called a "global positioning unit”. From there we will send you on a scavenger hunt to find "hidden treasures" in order to accumulate team points. The team with the most points collected within the allotted time limit is the winner. Custom programs can include certain challenges based on clues or items found with your GPS unit to complete the event and create team winners and triumphs.

The G.P.S unit is a hand held device that has been used for several years by aviators and nautical folks alike. Recently these devices have been made available to the general public for several different purposes from driving directions to hunting, backpacking etc. These tracking devices are accurate to within 6 feet of a mark on a map by sending and receiving signals from 12 satellites in orbit. The G.P.S. Is also used in conjunction with a map and a compass thus giving the whole team several different strategies to find the "hidden treasures". We will also give basic instructions to each of the teams on the usage of map and compass orienteering.

So try a new experience that will really have your group talking about for a long while after the event with the newest technology available.
