Event Format
This will be a standard Point-to-Point meet where the controls are visited in the specified order. The winner is whoever visits the controls in order in the least amount of time (for each course).
Several courses at varying levels will be provided:
- Course 1 (1.8km): Easy. A good introductory course for beginners. Controls are located along trails.
- Course 2 (3.1km): Basic. Most controls are located just off the trails. Use the trails to make your way around the course.
- Course 3 (3.4km): Intermediate. Controls are located off the trails. Route choice becomes important. Good map reading skills are an asset.
- Course 4 (4.6km): Advanced. Controls could be anywhere! Good navigational skills are essential.
