About the event

It does not have to be rugged. It does not have to be an endurance event. But, it can be both. The challenge is an activity of cross-country navigation involving both route planning and navigation using a map and compass to reach check points (CP’s). Part of the challenge is the actual planning of a route, following the intended route, finding the CP’s and returning to the start/finish line by the prescribed time. Each CP is worth points.

This is a rain or shine offering that is uphill, downhill, along trails and into the bush. 20 CP’s will be set in a prescribed area and marked on a map. Think of this activity as a seek and find in the woods with a few controlled variables. For instance, you will be given boundaries (typically trails) and we note on the map a couple of “reset” locations (think trail junctions or a obvious landscape feature).
