These will be tough courses both physically and on your orienteering
abilities.  Since this is the championship, distances are on the long
end with good climbs.  In addition, the legs will be challenging with
multiple route choices and control placements that require an
attention paid to handrails and attackpoints.  The advanced courses
will go through old growth forests, open park, woods that look like
hardwood forests back east and you may choose  your route along the
sound in places.

Here are some specific comments:

You will be crossing roads in the park.  They will NOT be closed to
traffic.  Be extremely careful, Especially when leaving a wooded
trail and crossing a road.

The park was particularly hard hit with the winter storms.  Most of
the debris has been cleaned up.  However, there are still some trees
and debris on the trail.  Some of these trails may be obscured by
branches so pay close attention.  If the trail is on the map, there
will be a trail though the debris.

There are still some trail closed signs up.  Disregard these signs.
ALL TRAILS ARE OPEN.

If a control is off trail, it may be thick but it will not be fight.
If you are seriously fighting to get to a control, you may want to
check your location.

See you Saturday
