ED/CS Notes:
Fort Washington Debut of New Revised Map – Easter Saturday April 19 Note the early Start and Finish times of 9am and 11:30am
We are delighted to invite you to run/walk your course (on the new revised FW map) that visits places we have not used for a number of years. Given the amount of detail in the far more developed eastern half of the park, the map will be printed at 1:7500 scale to make everything more legible for all those attending, and especially on more advanced courses will also have a few more legs per course than normal. The Red course is the only course that crosses Joshua Rd, and are designed to use the 2 most common trail crossings (going out and coming back) to make Red navigation the safest.
If long-range forecasts hold, April 19 should be a warmish day (hallelujah!) with perhaps some light showers in the afternoon after we have packed up and left the park. Fort Washington park has started its Spring time greening, but all courses are designed to avoid the worst patches of brambles…though you might find solitary renegades shooting up here and there.
Our Staging Area will be in one of the northern-most picnic areas in the largest parking lot. Just follow the orange arrows and look for our Sign and Blade welcoming you.
