Gold Rush Night Orienteering.
May 2nd, 2015. New Hogan Lake, Valley Springs. Oak Knoll campground.
Saturday evening saw a large group of orienteers tackle a fun course at New Hogan reservoir. The event got underway at about 9pm with 2 minute intervals between competitors. A pre-marked map was provided with 10 checkpoints set. A large number of trails provided wide route choices,
A barbecue and good company entertained those who finished earlier while we waited for the rest of the field to return.
Thanks to the US ARmy corps of Engineers for the venue.
