Course Setter's Notes
Springtime - when the vegetation is generally low* and the water is generally high. Let's see how much of Mendon Ponds we can cover in 2 or 4 hours! This event will be a score-O style, with 27 controls scattered through the whole park, but plenty of them will be close enough to the start for those going out for 2 hours or for a less intense adventure. The controls will be worth between 10 and 50 points, with a 10 point per minute penalty for late finishers. There are a lot of trails in Mendon, so the navigation may not always be the most challenging, but the route choice and control selection (to make sure you get back in time!) should still give you a mental workout.
*Note: "low" does not mean "thornless", long pants and long sleeves are highly recommended.
Also note, if you aren't sure whether you want to do 2 hours or 4, please register for the 4 hour event, we can always switch you over if you decide to finish up early.
