ED/CS Notes:
Parking and registration will be at Scott’s Run Lake. We will be using the northern parking lot (so keep driving past the first two lots in the Scott’s Run loop to reach us). Start is a flat 400 meter road walk from registration and finish is within 150 meters of registration.
Like the event at Nolde last summer, these courses will focus on route choice. At many points in the intermediate and advanced courses there will be a fork and you will have two choices of which control to visit (so there may be two different control 3’s on your map but you only need to go to one of the two). Since there will be so many different route choice options and people going different directions there will also be a mass-start option added to the mix. There will be standard white and yellow courses, an intermediate level forked course (listed as orange-Y below), and four advanced level forked courses (brown-Y, green-Y, red-Y, and blue-Y below). The blue course follows the brown course route and then adds an extra loop, while the green and red courses mostly follow the first part of the first blue loop and the second part of the second blue loop.
The mass start will be at 11AM, though you can also start at any time in the standard 10-1 window. Please register by 10:30 if you want to take part in the mass start. Control pick-up will begin at 3PM.
Detailed course notes are now available on the e-board (under the members tab above).
Hope to see you there!
