Western Canadian long distance champs. Disaster on no 3, it was super vague area with little attack points. Had to relocate 400 meters and back. 25 min on a 500 meter leg. No 4 was tough too. No 6 I should of taken the ride to the north, but stubborn me went straight and the woods were vague and thick. Never saw my trail that was a catching feature. The the course got technical till it smoothed out but I was still having problems.
Good to at least finish.

Western Canadian - Long: Course 7 - Splits

Event: 2016 Icefields Parkway Orienteering Festival
 

2016 western Canadian champs. Middle distance. Fairly clean run, not as difficult as I though. No 6 lost time as I can across a flat section was not sure where I crossed creek. Ended up 3rd in M/55

Middle - Course 7 - Splits

Model Event for the western Canadians. Woods were thick, and slow. Lots of pine trees down that had to be crossed carefully because all the little branch daggers.
Looks like a tough and slow area with tomorrow's middle distance only being 2.2k

Sweet summer ride, on my hybrid, thought it would do the shoulders better than my road bike. Rode to see the big lake and turn around.
