Timing Device and Compass

  • Bring your own compass. If you forgot one, check at the registration desk. 

Safety

  • Bring a whistle with you on the course. Grab one from the event Registration table if you don’t have one. 
  • Scan the FINISH QR code (even if you didn’t find all the checkpoints or just decided to stop) or check in at the computer station so we know that you are off the course. We need to know that you are off the course!!
