Your score is the total of the points you punched during the 2 hour time limit. You will lose 10 points for each minute used beyond the time limit. Each control will have a reflector on it to help you find it in the dark.
What to Bring:
Headlamp or flashlight with fresh batteries

Emergency whistle (use three long blasts to indicate you are injured)

A change of clothes, socks and shoes are recommended for after the event as the evening dew will probably set-in or you may get your feet wet crossing a creek
Check In will start at 5:30 PM. Beginners can start their course immediately, while Night Owl participants will receive their map at 6:00 PM in order to plan their route. If you requested a loaner fingerstick, or we have assigned you one to ensure it can hold enough control punches, it will be in the clear map bag. Bring your own pen/marker/highlighter if you would like to draw a route on your map, however be careful not to obscure important map features!
There will be a mass start at 6:30PM.
At 8:30 PM the courses close and controls will be picked up. You should return to the finish if still on the course at this time.
Everyone needs to register at the finish control and download your finger stick, so we know you are back and don't send a search party for you. This is also where loaned fingersticks will get returned.
