Steel Stacks in Bethlehem looks like it could be an incredible urban sprint location. Anybody ever been there? Www.steelstacks.org

I think somebody did a beginner program there last year at some festival or activity day. Maybe Steve and Sharon or Franks? I remember reading about it and thinking it sounded cool.

Check with Petr Hartman. He did a map for a program about a year ago which might be usable for a sprint.

Petr did indeed map a portion of the area for a demonstration course for an outdoor expo, Step Outdoors Lehigh Valley.

We do have an orienteering map with a demonstration course which is a white level 3 km course.

All welcome.
