Notes:

The map has been drawn using the sprint symbol set ISSprOM 2019-2. Of particular note I used the symbol 533 “Area with obstacles” which some people might not have encountered before. Check-out the O-map Wiki for its definition and some examples: https://omapwiki.orienteering.sport/symbols/533-area-with-obstacles/

Otherwise:

  • the T symbol (Small tower) represents bat boxes
  • X are mostly picnic tables
  • O are mostly benches
  • Large green X is a pile of fallen trees, or a really unique tree

Because of the bridge construction 102 Ave is really quiet. The courses go through a residential neighbourhood so please be respectful of the local residents.

Because these are sprints and some of you are very fast, you’re welcome to do more than one course
