Come orienteering in the beautiful woods of Noon Hill from September 12-27, 2020.

Courses:

• Yellow (2.5 km)
• Orange (4.0 km)
• Brown (3.8 km)
• Green (5.2 km)
• Score-O—60-minute time limit; overtime penalty: 10 points per minute or fraction of a minute
• "Get 'Em All"—How long will it take you to get all 22 controls in any order?

Courses were designed to minimize repetition of legs so come and do more than 1 course. And while you are there, consider catching the view from atop Noon Hill, or stopping by scenic Horn Pond.

Parking is in the small dirt lot at approximately 20 Noon Hill Rd. If the parking is full, please do NOT park along Noon Hill Rd except at clear parking areas. Consider coming early/late in the day or during the week.

Start/Finish with instructions for QRienteering are on the edge of the lot, close to the big metal gate. Controls will be marked with orienteering flags as well as QR codes. You can self-time/self-report, use your smart phone to scan the QRienteering codes, or use a GPS tracker.

Please note that all Trustees properties require use of masks and social distancing, dogs must be on leash at all times, and users should return at another time when parking is full (rather than park on the road). Event is free for NEOC members and $5 for non-members. Please report missing controls/QR codes or any other issues to Karen Yeowell at This email address is being protected from spambots.
