Thanks to all who came out! Congrats to the 8 brave souls who ventured out on the Elite Course - my apologies for the one ever-so-slightly misplaced control on the fenceline! Results are posted to the left.

Beaver Lake Orienteering : This will be a classic "B" meet consisting of three courses of varying difficulty : Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced. Beginner is the shortest course with all controls on trails or obvious features. Intermediate is slightly longer with controls placed off trails but not overly difficult. Advanced is the longest course with many controls being more difficult to find or requiring the use of a compass.
Registration : From 12.30pm. Parking: Park in the main upper parking lot - enter off Elk Lake Dr. Look for the white VICO orienteering tent.
Starts : Staggered starts from 1pm onward.
Course : Classic B meet - obtain all controls in order as quickly as you can. Course closes at 3:30pm
