One hour to locate as many posts with orienteering symbol as you can, in whatever order you choose.
This is a free-order event in which participants have 1 hour to visit as many of the orienteering control flag locations marked on their map and pin-punch their score card to prove they have visited the control flag site. You can navigate to control flags in whatever order you choose, but remember, you must return to the finish within 1 hour to avoid a time penalty!
