Crevasse Moraine
Orienteerers who made the trek out to Palmer on Saturday discovered that the weather was better there. Rain ended by late morning, and a least one person reported being struck by sunshine! Seventeen people ran the four courses; 12 finished their courses. A few took some interesting extra twists and turns among all the depressions, lake and ridges. The courses were long.
Many thanks to Corrie Whitmore for helping with field checking, Toby Schwoerer for set-up (getting the tent the half-mile to the remote start was indispensable); Pam Cravez for helping run the meet, Eric Follett, Mischa and Erik Carlson, and Dela Grey for helping to get everything back to the parking lot and Steve McKeever for running the red course on Sunday (thus not getting his time in the results) and picking up those controls.
