The road to the event is rough and not recommended for low-clearance vehicles. Sedans can make it with slow, careful driving, but high-clearance vehicles are strongly recommended for comfort and safety.

To ensure everyone can attend—regardless of vehicle type or comfort on unpaved roads—we will carpool from Udall Park:
📍 Meet at the northeasternmost parking lot at Udall Park
🕗 8:15–8:30 am
🚙 Drive time to trailhead: 40–60 minutes

Final parking is at Redington Pass Trailhead (OHV lot off Redington Rd.).
⚠️ The final 8 miles are unpaved with rocky and uneven sections.

🧭 Courses

Both days feature four course options designed for different experience levels:

• Long Advanced (7–8 km): For experienced orienteers looking for a challenge

• Short Advanced (~4 km): Technical but shorter

• Novice (2–3 km): Ideal for first-timers

• Explorer (Score): Choose-your-own-route format

🗺️ Maps

• Long courses: 1:10,000
