Course Setter: Karl Ahlswede and see choices to Volunteer to help at this event 🙏
Notes: Student parking Lot A at the Bucks County Community College will be used for parking and registration.
ED/CS Notes:
The courses that will be used for the October 10th event were originally going to be run in March but flooding caused that event to be cancelled. Tyler State Park orienteering is very fast and navigation is relatively easy. If you have ever wanted to move up in category this is the park to do it in.
Registration, start, and finish are all located on the Bucks County Community College campus. Use Student Parking Lot A, which is located off Swamp Road on the North end of campus. As usual, follow our orange and white direction signs.
All of the courses will cross park roads so caution should be exercised at all time. All courses will also cross the campus of Bucks County Community College. Please be courteous to the property.
Below are specific notes for the individual courses:
White: at the start follow the streamers to the first control. The mapped path has been obscured recently.
Brown: most of the course is on the BCCC campus. Your maps are printed on 1:5000 scale to make it more readable. It will not have a legend printed on it.
Green and Red: there will be a box of 4 controls that can be taken in any order (a very mini Score-O). All of them must be punched for your course to be complete.
Sprint-is on the short side and very easy navigation in an "urban" environment. I encourage anyone that is curious to give it a try. The map is printed on 1:5000 scale with descriptive text on the clue sheets.
See you in the woods.
