Just as ordered, it looks like we’ll have ideal weather (for early December) in the NJ Pinelands, sunny and lower-to-mid 50’s at Batsto.  I’ve refined the courses a bit more since my original posting, so that advanced courses share portions of their courses, lots to compare and gloat about at Finish among your friends.  Hope you love your courses in this unique gem of a venue.  Course lengths and number of controls have changed only slightly.

White      2.3k        35m       12 ctrls

Yellow     3.1k        40m       13 ctrls

Orange   4.5k        75m       11 ctrls

Brown     3.8k        40m       10 ctrls

Green     5.6k        85m       12 ctrls

Red        7.4k       105m       17 ctrls

Blue        9.7k      135m       22 ctrls

While we have a great core staff to start off the day, we could definitely use some additional help to relieve our group at Registration, Start, Instruction, and of course Pick-Up.  We have also received a request from the park admin to have someone posted at one major road crossing, so we could also use a volunteer that could work the first couple of hours.  [Please contact me at bburg@comcast.net, or text at (856) 669-4510.] 

Both Start and Finish are only steps away from Registration, so you can whoop and holler bringing in family and friends along the 55m Finish chute.    See you in the woods.
