We had a perfect day for orienteering and exploring the streets (and quite literally, the backwoods) of Cary and Morrisville. Thanks to everyone who came, it turned out to be a fun event. Apart from a couple of minor issues (such as new Halloween decorations, that were not there when I scouted for control locations)…

On Friday we continued with fox orienteering under drier conditions. The weather was close to perfect for orienteering and the forest was dry enough. The new format (where foxes are spread over three different frequencies and two modes) is in line with international competitions. Most people adapted to it fairly quickly.

ARDF USA Championship 2021 – Fox-o
On Saturday we shifted gears to do fox-orienteering. Dave Waller designed some challenging courses for us. Several competitors complained that the frequency on some transmitters was slightly off, enough that the transmitters couldn’t be heard on the nominal frequency. We are investigating that issue. Results: ARDF 2021 US & Region 2 Championship – Fox-o, Results…
