Results for Lake Crabtree radio orienteering sprint (June 25, 2023)

After a week of rain we had a rare dry day for radio orienteering. It was hot and muggy, but not wet.

The courses proved to be tricky, but everybody found all the transmitters that they were assigned, even if not in the perfect order. It was a great practice for the upcoming world championships. This was the location of the transmitters:

120-124 Slow 1-5

125-129 Fast 1-5

133 Spectator

136 Beacon

Lake Crabtree park was perfect for a radio orienteering sprint: it is just the right size and we have a very accurate map of it. I’m sure we will return here in the future.

Thanks to Charles for lending us his equipment and helping with setup and pickup. His transmitters worked without a single problem all day.
