November 20 was originally scheduled as an event to be held at the Birkhead Wilderness area. However, BOK has recently been approved by Orienteering USA to hold an A-Meet, and the US Classic Championships, at Birkhead in March 2012. This means that the Birkhead area is embargoed (if we were to use it, that would give locals an unfair advantage at the national A-Meet). Therefore, we decided to move this event to Morrow Mountain.
I do not know the full history of the Morrow Mountain map, but this is an area that has been shared in the past between the orienteering clubs BOK and COK. However, BOK has not used this area in a long time, and the most recent update to the Morrow Mtn map was undertaken entirely by COK. We decided to use this event as an excuse to reconnect with old friends, and contacted the people from COK. Walter was kind enough to give us access to the new map.
Because of the situation regarding the map, we opened up this Advanced event (normally open only to BOK club members who have completed a Brown or above course) to members from other clubs in the area. We saw a few new faces at the event because of this. It was also nice to see some familiar faces from the Charlotte area once again.
The weather was far more pleasant than could ever be expected for a late November day. Temperatures were warm enough to be comfortable sitting around the start area, but cool enough for good running. The sky started out clear and blue, and although it clouded up some toward the end of the day, this just kept things cool enough for the people finishing their run and we were not troubled by any rain.
The steep elevation at Morrow Mtn had a lesson or two to teach us about running along contours rather than on the straight line. Also, there was a lively discussion at the end regarding the placement of control 13 (53), the consensus of which seemed to be that there might be some mapping irregularities in the area (which was dense and apparently ugly to search) but that the control was hung in the correct ditch.

One response to “Results for Morrow Mountain Advanced, November 20, 2011”
Dear O-friends
Due to our friend Walter we came to know about the event at Mt. Morrow and could participate. We like to thank for the organisation last November, we enjoyed the time in the forest with the challenging course and your hospitality!
Again home in Switzerland we wish a happy Christmas Season!
Kind regards from Ueli & Ruth Hofstetter
