The Hunter fracture zone, with the Hunter Ridge, an area with recent volcanic activity to its north, is the southern boundary of the North Fiji Basin. [3] This boundary area in the south-western part of the Hunter fracture zone is associated with hot subduction, and a unique range of volcanic geochemistry.
The area known as the Bligh Water is the body of water (approximately 9500 km 2 in extent) in the western Fiji islands through which Bligh sailed his 7 m (23 ft) launch during his 3,618-mile (5823 km) journey from Tofua to the Dutch port of Timor.
While the Elbe is the longest Czech-related river when measured through its overall length (i.e. including its lower course in Germany), its tributary the Vltava surpasses it as the longest river within the territory of the Czech Republic itself. (In fact the Vltava also carries more water than the Elbe at their confluence.)
River leg – This leg started with 63 km (39 mi) of biking, followed by 30 km (19 mi) of white water rafting on the Navua River, ending with 50 km (31 mi) of jungle trekking. For safety reason, no team can tackle white water rafting during the night, and teams must stay at the check point until dawn before they can proceed to the river to raft.

The Fiji Platform lies in a zone bordered by active extension fault lines, around which most of the shallow earthquakes in the area have been centred. These fault lines are: the Fiji Fracture Zone (FFZ) to the north; the 176° Extension Zone (176°E EZ) to the west; and the Hunter fracture zone (HFZ) and Lau Ridge to the east. [1]
