What should I bring?

Wear something comfortable that you don't mind getting a little dirty! You might want to consider a change of shoes and socks. If it's wet outside, you might need a complete change of clothes! It will definitely be dark - bring flashlight and/or head lamp with spare batteries.

Compass, whistle, watch or other timing device, and a working light source(s) are mandatory for this event.
