Winter Sprint Series - hosted by Auckland Orienteering Club
Sprint Series 3, Cornwall Park (Micro sprint)
FIRST START 3:45pm - 4.45pm. Course closure 5.15pm
This event onon 22nd June will be what we call a micro. It is in Cornwall Park in an area with lots of trees with every tree mapped and controls on many, sometimes even on both side of the one tree. You have a very blown up map and have to work out which is the control you are going to. A bit of fun for your Saturday afternoon (but actually very good map reading practice).
The controls are going to be set for Sport Ident Air in 2024 so, if you have one, you can use a SIAC card.
