Hello Orienteers!
The Alaska Orienteering Festival is only a week away! If you have not done so, please register by Wednesday, so we can be sure to have a map printed for you.
We will be grilling hamburgers and hot dogs and camping Saturday night (August 3rd) somewhere along the Willow-Fishhook Road between the two events. The exact location is subject to weather (higher and further east if the weather looks favorable or lower if not) and site availability. We will update the website as soon as possible after a site is secured Thursday afternoon. Directions will also be available at the Saturday event.
The courses for the Saturday event have been set. See the website for course setter notes and updated details. Check out this interesting and timely analysis of the Willow map by an elite European orienteer.
The start time and location for Sunday’s Mountain-O have been set. See the website for details.
