Register for Orienteering Events

Our fifth event of the 2023 NAV-X Challenge series takes us to the secluded, hilly expanse of oak woodlands, grasslands, and chaparral of Cache Creek. The Natural Area is traversed by Cache Creek, with its year-round water flow. Elevation ranges from 3200 feet atop Brushy Sky High, down to 600 feet in the eastern end of Cache Creek along State Route 16. This event features an improved topo map with orienteering symbols and now with LiDAR based 5-meter contours and vegetation. It's possible to make a weekend out of it and camp at Cowboy Camp for free (pit toilets and group/dispersed camping), or just south at Cache Creek Regional Park Campground (pay sites with facilities). This event will use the app MapRun for timing on your own schedule. Upon registration, you will receive (1) registration confirmation, (2) within 24 hours, a separate email with links to map documents.

Auraria Campus Score-O - CANCELED - 25Nov23

Closed

Please join us for "Buzzard-O," an urban orienteering experience on the Auraria Campus! Please share this link with your friends, family, heck, even your co-workers! :-)

Visit Buzzard-O Starts for the list of registered participants.

This is a "Score-O" event, a bit like a scavenger hunt.

The basics:
- Please arrive, pre-registered online, by 10:00.
- I will hand out maps and give a briefing at 10:20. - There will be a "mass start," everyone starts at the same time, 10:30am.
- The objective is to verify having found as many controls as possible in any order in a strictly limited amount of time (tba)
- Verification occurs by using the hand punch at each control to make a unique punch pattern in the correct box on your control card (on map or on a separate sheet of paper).
- Controls may have different point values, depending upon their relative distance and difficulty.
- Having said all of that, you don't have to run if you don't want to, and you don't even have to punch (unless you want to be scored) Feel free to casually walk the map if you wish. The course closes at 12:30 (I'll begin collecting controls by then).

Limited scoring/timing will be offered; I'll be manually recording times and punch data in a spreadsheet to calculate scores, so there will be a kind of 'quiet' period of 20-30mins after the race for me to get this done. I may establish age and sex-based classes and a teams class depending upon the registrant profile.

Only Early and Regular registrants will be eligible for scoring. Late period registrations are welcome, including day-ofs Online Only, but Late registrations will not be scored.

You're welcome to participate in teams. To do so, each team member must enter the Team Name when prompted during online registration. Teams must stay together the entire time and must finish together (do not report in as finished until your team is all together at the finish). Sorry, there will be no formation of recorded teams, editing of team membership, or editing of team names once Regular online registration closes. Select "Individual - Not Participating as a Team" as appropriate.

I will have loaner compasses for those who want them, but they're not really needed on a campus like this. There will be no significant instruction offered at this event. The event is just for fun, and it's pretty easy to find your way around campus.

Online registration is required. Every individual (each child, team member, etc.) must have their own separate registration including a properly signed waiver.

$15 Early registration through 11Nov at 20:00,
$20 Regular registration though 24Nov at 12:00,
$25 Late Registration.

Children 12yo and younger with a registered parent are free. Children 12yo and younger without a registered parent are charged the full rate according to their time of registration.

All registrations as of/after 8pm on Sunday, 19th Nov will be deemed final (no refunds after 8pm on Sunday, 19th Nov unless CoNav cancels).

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

BYO water, snacks. Free loaner compasses will be available (not really necessary on this map), just ask for one when you check-in. We'll have use of the nearby field house restroom building.

PARKING/ACCESS: There is no free parking on campus (anywhere, anytime), but there should be plenty of $2/hr metered parking nearby, limited free street parking downtown (N of Speer), and meet HQ will be abt 600m from the Ball Area Light Rail Stn and about 700m from the Colfax at Auraria Stn. There's no embargo for this event, but try not to peek on your way in! :-)

I hope you'll be able to attend!

Please contact me with any questions or concerns. conavgames a.t gmail dot com

Thank you.

Closed

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.

This is a low-key, low-stress, self-guided opportunity to learn and practice basic orienteering skills. It is designed for beginning and intermediate orienteers, but participants of all levels are welcome. There will be no timing or scoring provided.

HQ area: Tower Loop. Park in designated spaces only. Parking on the roadside or other areas is prohibited.

First starts at 10am, courses close at 2pm. I have a nice program set up for your, and you can do basically anything you want during this window within our permit, the law, and good manners.

As a with all CoNav events, advance registration is required via EventReg separately for each and every participant, regardless of age or relationship.

There will be FOUR courses within this event. Controls will be shared between courses. Suggested sequence:
1) A 1.2km map-only, no compass course to help you focus on relating what's on the map to what you see around you and orienting your map accordingly
2) A 1.3km intensive compass-and-pace counting exercise to get you very comfortable with precision compass work.
3) A 1.7km Orange (intermediate) course so that you can put it all together!
4) A 1.9km Orange course intended to meet the BSA 1st Class Rank requirement.
CoNav believes, but does not guarantee, that these courses will meet merit badge or rank requirements. Please consult with your counselor and leaders and have them contact me with any questions or concerns.

Advance registration is required - please click to EventReg to register (RSVPing on Meetup is fine, but registration via EventReg is still required.

Please ensure that a separate registration (waiver and payment) has been completed for every single person in your group, regardless of age, relationship, etc. Re-use/sharing of the map and/or walking any part of a course by unregistered persons is not permitted.

N.b: Park admission ($11/vehicle) is not included.

**You must select the appropriate "package" for the fee to be calculated correctly. Please do not select "Continue Without Package."***

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."

Puppies LOVE to take their people orienteering! Dogs are welcome at this event, but handling a map, a compass and a puppy can become challenging, I am told. Leash and pick-up rules apply.

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 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.

09Sep USAFA Sherwood Forest Skills Development Event - 09Sep23

Closed

Please share a link to this event with friends, family, even co-workers - EVERYONE is welcome!!

To stay informed about upcoming CoNav events, please join the CoNav Meetup group found at CoNavDEN or at CoNavCOS (duplicate sites, just different areas)

Please register for CoNav's Orienteering event at Sherwood Forest on the Air Force Academy! This map has it all; enough of a trail/road system to suit absolute beginners and sufficient complexity of terrain and vegetation to challenge advanced orienteers.

This is a self-guided event. I'll be on hand to assist and answer any questions you may have.

Select from either the Begintermediate (fine for total newbies) or Advanced tracks, each with a specially-designed combination of practice routes* on one map followed by a skills-appropriate standard course map. Select the White course for the easiest introduction to orienteering at this event.

Also, subject to interest level, I plan to offer a Mock Search and Rescue event to practice what orienteers should do before calling emergency services when someone is overdue. One or more targets depending upon SAR participant count. One base and three field radios may be available. This 'Race' will start at NOON.

*Practice Routes, by the current plan, will include things like:
Map only: orient by reference to features (no compass)
Compass and pace: find controls using compass and pace counting only.
Line-O: Controls will be found along, but not mapped on, zig-zagging line (you must stay precisely on the line to find the controls, which can be located at any point along the line)
Corridor-O: Map completely whited-out but for a corridor of detail

Veteran orienteer and course planner Neal Barlow has designed a terrific 5km advanced standard course that will take you through some of the best of the map while sparing you the most physical terrain. Controls will be shared between and within tracks.

Starts open at 9am, last start at 11am, and courses close at 2pm. Rain or shine.

The tracks are called "races" in EventReg, but there will be no actual races and no timing, scoring, results reporting, etc. This event is just about fun, learning, and practice. Group leaders are welcome to conduct their own timing and scoring if desired. *You must select the appropriate "package" for the fee to be calculated correctly. Do not click, "Continue Without Package."* After selecting your package, select "Competing/Participating" for the course(s) you will do.

Please ensure a separate registration (waiver and payment) has been completed for every single person in your group, regardless of age, relationship, etc. Re-use/sharing of the map and/or walking any part of a course by unregistered persons is not permitted.

Public: $20 through 7th Sep 7pm
USAFA, Prep, AAHS cadets, students, staff, faculty, DoD cardholders and Academy Archery Club members: $10 through 7th Sep 7pm.
All registrations (including unpaid registrations) after 7th Sep 7pm: $25.
Online Reg will close at 6am on 09Sep (day-of).
12yo and younger accompanied by a fully registered and paid parent or legal guardian are free.

Prep School, AAHS, and other Groups: Please contact me directly for streamlined payment options. Online Reg with waiver submission for each participant is required. Thank you.

Important details:
- US Citizens and perm residents can enter USAFA via the NORTH gate by showing a driver's license or other gov't issued ID.
- If you are not a US Citizen or perm resident, please contact me immediately to work out your access. It may take >2 weeks or more to process your access, and access is not guaranteed.

Even the slowest participants have a chance to win this race.
Those signed up will receive updates and start time assignments. If you sign up late, you might miss some of these emails. Be sure to arrive well ahead of your start time assignment.
Tickets for this event are $20. Season Pass members will have a coupon code valued at $10 to apply towards the entry fee.

Closed

This is the final event in the BAOC 2023 Summer Series

The navigational difficulty is significantly eased by the nature of this park, so beginners are encouraged to attend.

The Short and Long courses will be the ranking courses for the 2023 Summer Series.

If you bought the 2023 Summer Series Package, then you are all set and don't need to sign up here.

You may register here online only if:
1. You can pay online (credit card, debit card, or PayPal account)
AND if:
2. You want to register as an individual, appearing in the results as a solo orienteer.

If you want to compete as a team, sharing a single E-stick with your friends or your children or your fellow Scouts, you will need to register at the event.

08Jul FoxRun Skills Development Event - 08Jul23

Closed

Please share a link to this event with friends, family, even your co-workers – EVERYONE is welcome!!

This will be an All-levels, self-guided Skills Development Event at Fox Run Regional Park in northern Colorado Springs. This is the last Fox Run event from CoNav in 2023 - please come out to enjoy this outstanding opportunity to practice reading contours!

I will provide instruction via printed materials and will be on-hand to assist and answer any questions you may have.

Select from either the Begintermediate or Advanced tracks, each with a specially-designed combination of practice routes* on one map followed by a skills-appropriate standard course map. Controls will be shared between and within tracks. Starts as early as 8, course closure by 2pm. Rain or shine.

*Practice Routes, by the current plan, will include things like:
Map only: orient by reference to features (no compass)
Compass and pace: find controls using compass and pace counting only. I'm planning to accommodate a request for a super-long adv leg.
Line-O: Controls will be found along, but not mapped on, zig-zagging line (you must stay on the line to find the controls)
Corridor-O: Map completely whited-out but for a corridor of detail (probably 30m wide for Begint, 15m for Adv)
Fog/Window-O: selected areas of the map will be whited-out

Begintermediate participants will love Fox Run's extensive and carefully mapped trail system. Advanced participants will enjoy the added challenge from the deliberate omission of said trail system from their maps. :-O

The two tracks are called "races" in EventReg, but there will be no actual races and no timing, scoring, etc. This event is just about fun, learning, and practice. You must select the appropriate "package" for the fee to be calculated correctly.br>
Please complete a separate registration (waiver and payment) for every single person in your group, regardless of age, relationship, etc.

$15 Early Reg through 23:00 on 24Jun, $20 Regular Reg thru 23:00 on Wednesday, 05Jul. Late Reg $25. Online Reg will close at 06:00 on 08Jul. 12yo and younger accompanied by a fully registered and paid parent or legal guardian are free.

Learn & Practice Event at Chestnut Ridge Park - Thursday, June 29, 2023

Closed

We are offering a special Learn & Practice session at Chestnut Ridge Park on Thursday, June 29, 2023. Registration is free for Buffalo Orienteering Club members and $5.00 for non-members. All participants must register online including club members. This event will be limited to 50 participants to be sure that each person can fully benefit from the instruction. Registered participants should arrive been 5:30 pm and 6:00 pm with the the event beginning at 6:00 pm. Enter the park and drive by the Casino toward shelter #8. (We will have signs starting at the Casino.) Cross over the bridge after passing shelter 8 and look for the Orienteering Event signs on your right. When you arrive, volunteers will check your name on the list and assign you to a group for the instruction. Instruction will begin at 6:00. We will be using a 6-control permanent course for this Learn and Practice. The instructor will introduce you to orienteering maps and symbols and to a very rudimentary explanation of the compass. Then the instructor will walk with the group to the first two controls, giving guidance along the way. Then the instructor will let the individuals in the group navigate to the last four controls on their own. Participants can find these controls as individuals or in a group. While participants do not need to bring anything to the event, a base-plate compass would be helpful because the club has very few to loan out. The map for the event will be handed to participants when they sign in.

20May FoxRun Skills Development Event - 20May23

Closed

Please share a link to this event with friends, family, even co-workers – everyone is welcome!! Please register for Colorado Navigation Games’ All-levels Skills Development Event to be held at Fox Run Regional Park in northern Colorado Springs. This is a self-guided event, and I'll be on hand to assist and answer any questions you may have. Select from either the Begintermediate or Advanced tracks, each with a specially-designed combination of practice routes* on one map followed by a skills-appropriate standard course map. Controls will be shared between and within tracks. Starts as early as 8, course closure by 2pm. Rain or shine. *Practice Routes, by the current plan, will include things like: Map only: orient by reference to features (no compass) Compass and pace: find controls using compass and pace counting only. I’m planning to accommodate a request for a super-long adv leg. Line-O: Controls will be found along, but not mapped on, zig-zagging line (you must stay on the line to find the controls) Corridor-O: Map completely whited-out but for a corridor of detail (probably 30m wide for Begint, 15m for Adv) Fog/Window-O: selected areas of the map will be whited-out Begintermediate participants will love Fox Run’s extensive and carefully mapped trail system. Advanced participants will note the deliberate omission of said trail system from their maps. :-O The two tracks are called “races” in EventReg, but there will be no actual races and no timing, scoring, etc. This event is just about fun, learning, and practice. You must select the appropriate “package” for the fee to be calculated correctly. Please ensure a separate registration (waiver and payment) has been completed for every single person in your group, regardless of age, relationship, etc. $20 Regular reg ends at 11pm on Wednesday, 17th May. Late Reg $25. Online Reg will close at 11pm on Friday, 19th May. 12yo and younger accompanied by a fully registered and paid parent or legal guardian are free. Some fine print: This event is limited to 30 participants (small parking lot, only one restroom at the Roller Coaster Road Trailhead), so please register early and plan to arrive early. I’ll happily issue full refunds requested by email no later than noon on Wednesday, 17th May but, after that point, all registrations will be final. If the participant count viewable on event reg is close to 30 and you arrive on the day-of without having registered online, please have a plan for an alternate activity that day because I may not be able to accommodate you. Sorry.

Closed

Rumor has it that these neighborhood streets designed to discourage burglars. There's no easy straight getaway with this layout! See how well you can keep track to navigate to control locations. The usual rules apply: keep off private property and don't get hit by a car. Visit as many controls as you can in any order, but get back in 90 minutes or less to avoid enormous overtime penalties. Any controls with yes or no answers will have huge penalties for wrong answers. This discourages guessing. No other maps may be used. You could use a compass, but the sun will be in the east; what more do you need? Preregistration is required and closes at noon on Friday, April 21. There will be no on-site registration. Discount Codes: AZClub (adult AZ member discount) KID (any kid 11 years old or younger) FRIEND (members can bring a new to orienteering friend for free)

08Apr Elizabeth Parks Begintermediate - 08Apr23

Closed

The Evans and Casey Jones Parks in Elizabeth are VERY special places to learn orienteering because they offer good examples of nearly every type of feature you'll in forest (and sprint) orienteering in a small, fenced-in, easily accessible location! This is a low-key, low-stress opportunity to learn and practice basic orienteering skills. It is designed for beginning and intermediate orienteers, but participants of all levels are welcome. Please separately register each and every participant, regardless of age or relationship. There will be three self-guided courses within this event. I'll provide you with comprehensive, yet brief, instructional materials for you to read. I recommend that you complete the courses in this order: 1. A map-only, no compass course to help you focus on relating what is on the map to what you see around you and orienting your map accordingly 2. An intensive compass-and-pace counting exercise to get you very comfortable with precision compass work. 3. An Orange (intermediate) course so that you can put it all together! Children 12 and younger accompanied by a fully registered parent/legal guardian are FREE, but each still must have a waiver signed by their Parent or Legal Guardian. - For each registration in your family/group aged 13 or older, click the "Select this Package" button for the "08Apr Elizabeth Parks Begintermediate, 13 and up" package. Select "Competing/Participating*" or "Not Competing" for each course that you/the participant plans to do*. - For each registration in your family/group aged 12 or younger, click the "Select this Package" button for the "08Apr Elizabeth Parks Begintermediate, 12 and younger" package. Select "Competing/Participating" or "Not Competing" for each course that the participant plans to do*. ***Do not click the "Continue Without Package" button.*** Pls disregard the "Additional races can be added at their normal fee." message. *Don't be too bothered with the terms 'competing' and 'race' - this event is really just about having some orienteering fun and improving one's skills. I will print maps and materials based on how many participants have registered as "Competing/Participating" for each course, plus a few extras. Every participant must have their own, separate registration and waiver. Early reg closed on 25Feb. $20 Regular reg thru 06Apr 8pm, $25 thereafter. Online reg will close at 8pm on 07Apr.

New Years Day Orienteering at Ironwood - January 1, 2023

Closed

Courses: A 2-hour Score-O has been set with both novice and seasoned orienteers in mind. The Score-O format allows you to choose your own adventure- which controls to visit, in whatever order you determine and what route you will use to arrive at the control. Scenic and interesting areas are highlighted by eighteen pin-punch controls of varying point values. The desert in this location is very runnable, although leg protection would be advisable in a few brushy spots. As you travel through the desert, you may spot evidence of Arizona's mining history or the area's first inhabitants. The objective is to maximize the point total obtained within the two hour course time limit. Late arrivals will be penalized with a loss of points for every minute (or portion thereof). Courses will close at 1 pm and control retrieval will begin. Schedule: 8:45 am: Free beginners’ clinic starts. Please arrive 15 minutes early if you wish to attend. 9:00-10:55 am: Check in. 9:00 am: First chance to start. 11:00 am: Last chance to start. 1:00 pm: Courses close. Registration: Pre-registration is required in order to keep an eye on crowd size and prepare the right number of maps. Everyone must register as an individual even if you plan on going as a team. See who has already signed up. Registration closes on December 30 at 10 am. Please check our website for more details on this event. With the first of the new year, it's time to renew your club membership, if you have not done so already. E-punch will NOT be used at this event. Discount Codes: AZClub (adult AZ member discount) KID (any kid 11 years old or younger) FRIEND (members can bring a new to orienteering friend for free)
