The opposite of the tunnel exercise - the legs between the first several controls were relatively short, but the areas along the straight lines between the controls were blanked out, with all other areas of the map still there. We thus had an opportunity to practice relying on terrain features that were somewhat off the straight line between the markers, even if the optimal route choice was pretty much along that straight line. After the first several controls, none of the map was blanked out, so we could just orienteer using our newly-practiced look-wide skills.

ahr:131 max:160 6c shoes: Icebug Spirit #1
One of the most satisfying specific-skills trainings I can remember. Each of the streamers had a map segment attached, showing nothing but the next leg of the course on a super large-scale map. On the way to the first marker, it really didn't seem like I was going to find any of them, but in the end I found them all. Had to re-trace my steps back to a previous marker only once.
