Merry Christmas to all you Orienteers, Navigators and AR Racers! Well all is now set. The proposed Rogaine and Land Navigation event is happening. Block your calendars off for Sat Feb 27th, 2010. Registration info will be available just after the New Years. There will be a 3-hr Rogaine race, a 6-hr combined Rogaine and AR Land Nav race (w/ bikes) and a 12-hr combined Rogaine and AR Land Nav race (w/ bikes).
Format will be a traditional 3-hr pre-plotted USOF Orienteering Score-O Rogaine course EVERYONE has to do. Then, those doing the 6 or 12 would pick up a new map and coordinates, plot them on the map and go find them, all on one continuous clock.
Safe parking will be provided and a Hash House for Start/Finish/Plotting and after race food will be provided. We intend to have T-shirts for all participants as well as great post race winter foods. Maps will be 1:10K Orienteering Map for the 3-hr Score-O and 1:24K My Topo Map for the remaining 6 & 12 hr courses. Most of the CP locations have NEVER been traveled to before. Biking is all mostly flat and mostly on country roads and some dirt roads (NO single track).
We're trying to figure out how much food, maps, T-shirts, etc to order so if you are pretty sure you plan to come, please let us know.
Happy Trails!
Mark Montague
