Thornburg Farm (Apr 15, 2023) – Results
Birkhead Wilderness near historical Thornburg Farm is one of the prettiest forests in our area and also one of the most challenging places for orienteering. There are virtually no trails and elevation features are so beautifully jumbled, that it makes it really hard to keep track of your location and even harder to restore connection…

Results – Umstead North, April 9, 2023
This event has been a true team effort. History: this event had been planned for April 2nd. However, the Park management noticed a conflict with the big Umstead 100 race, so we were forced to change to a different date. Easter Sunday was not ideal, but since we didn’t have an alternate location ready for…

Results for Open event at Lake Crabtree March 19th 2023
We had a lovely, if cool, day for orienteering at Lake Crabtree today. The courses were compact and we used the Motala format for green and red where the course consisted of two loops with a map exchange between them. This allowed more controls in a smaller area (a denser control set) without crowding either…

Shackleford Banks — Results
The cold rainy weather couldn’t spoil our fun on Shackleford this year. Although strong gusts prevented us from getting out for our Saturday courses, we were able to enjoy the island on Sundy where people ran one, two or three short loop courses among the dunes and wild horses. Although it wasn’t completely the weekend…

In this event, five of the controls on the original map (#45, 49,…

Results – Umstead South Feb 19th, 2023
We had a great turnout for BOK’s latest open event at Umstead South; filled to capacity. There were about 7 no-shows, but the harrowing parking could have been partly to blame. Even when we arrived to set up at 8:30AM, the parking lot was one-third full. The weather cooperated, remaining cool enough to make running…

Results – Radio-O Feb 12, 2023 Eno River
What great luck… The forecast was for heavy rain all day, but we persevered. Charles set the controls Thursday before the event, with the transmitters timed to turn on at the right date and time. It was 75 degrees and partly cloudy for course setting. He picked the foxes up on Monday when it was…
