Please share a link to this event with your friends and family - everyone is welcome! Please contact me directly to discuss special arrangements for scouts, school, J/ROTC, youth, corporate, wedding parties, and other groups.

There will be course for all levels (c'mon out, newbies!!). Printing instructional materials will be available, although this will be structured more like an actual event and without the usual CoNav-clever training/practice elements. There will be no timing or scoring provided, so, rest assured, no need to sweat it as though it's any sort of 'race.'

Courses:
Yellow: 1.3km (Beginner, mostly along linear features)
Orange: 2.2km (Intermediate, some off-trail nav required)
Green: 3.5km (Advanced, mostly off-trail)

The map (Sprint spec) features some great fine and coarse terrain navigation, highly detailed scrub oak mapping, and a touch of developed area to wrassle with.

HQ area: United States Air Force Academy, just W of the Soccer stadium. Enter USAFA at the North Gate and then follow these instructions: North Gate to Soccer Stadium

Select "Competing/Participating," for each "Race" (course map) you wish to go out on. This event is designed for fun, learning, and practice, so please don't be fazed by the use of the word "Race."

No dogs at this event, sorry. It's generally too hard to handle a puppy and a map at the same time, anyway.

Rain or shine. In the event of severe weather, the event may be canceled at the Registrar's discretion (in which case 100% refunds will be issued).

100% refund if you notify me by email (conavgames at gmail dot com) that you will not be attending no later than 8pm the night before the event.

The competitive window for this event is July 11- August 31. Results during this time period will be included in the official results and accrue Nav-X Challenge series points but the course will still be available on MapRun until 2025 Jan 1, after which it will move to the archived courses.

OLOU

OLOU 2024 - Rough River State Resort Park
Starts open from 9am - 11am central time / 10am - noon eastern time.

Online registration required before event for $10, OLOU members and cadets get a $3 discount.

Check-in will be at the shelter across the road from the beach.

Courses:
Beginner 0.7k 5CPs
Yellow 2.3k 12CPs
Orange 3.4k 15CPs
Brown 3.1k 9CPs
Red 5.9k 20CPs
Blue 9.0k 29CPs

The Beginner course is intended to be used as a primer for the Yellow. If you are new we encourage you to do the Beginner before taking on the Yellow.

The disc golf course has a changing mowing pattern. Therefore the vegetation on this part of the map is not accurate. A lot more of this area has been mowed than in the past. Parts of the courses are very open mowed areas, other parts are very rough needing long pants and/or gaiters.

The Blue course has a map exchange. It is the Red course and the Brown course. There are no shared legs between the Red and the Brown.

NAVX

2024 NAV-X GPS Challenge #4 - Donner Summit - 4 or 8 hour Map Trek
The 2024 Nav-X Challenge's 4th event brings us back to the Donner Summit area of Tahoe. We will be using a map with a scale of 1:15,000 and 5m contours. The map was made from a newer more accurate Lidar data set collected in 2018-19. The auto generated vegetation and cliffs are more accurate than the previous map version. The existing orienteering maps of Boreal Ridge and Donner Ski Ranch were georeferenced and imported into to the Lidar base map so half of the map will have orienteering level details such as boulders, knolls, depressions, etc. It should be a real treat for anyone who enjoys the high country at the best time of year, whether you are looking for a scenic hike, or a tough endurance race. The 4 and 8 hour courses will be GPS based, using the app "MapRun" for timing on your own schedule. The competitive window for this event is a 2-month window from August 1- September 30, 2024. Results during this time period will be included in the official results and accrue Nav-X Challenge series points but the course will still be available on MapRun until Jan 1, 2025. Upon registration, you will receive (1) registration confirmation, (2) within 24 hours, a separate email with links to map documents.
