A few weeks before the event we still had no course setter. Lindsay Worner stepped up and
designed some great courses.
On the day of the event, we woke up to thunder, torrential rain, and cold weather. By the time we
reached the camp, the rain and thunder had departed, but it was still cold. A fireplace in one end of
the enormous barn did little to warm it up, but eventually the weather (outside at least) turned
pleasant. The faithful who showed up were rewarded with challenging courses and open woods.
The terrain is pretty flat. Which meant we didn’t have to climb, but there were few distinct features
to help with location. The second leg on the brown course was about a mile long. This provided a
challenge we don’t usually see on this shorter course: choosing a route and staying in contact with
the map (or relocating!) over a long distance with no controls to verify the location.
As usual, a squad of volunteers made the meet run smoothly.
