Yankee Springs
April 18th 2015 12:00pm
Organizer: Mike Keating (Event Director)
Sarah Davenport and Mike Keating present 4-5 courses in the runnable woods of Yankee Springs. Experts will be challenged by the undulating terrain, and beginners will enjoy scenic wooded trails and hikes around monstrous natural bowls.
Find checkpoints (orange and white flags) using a map and compass.
Instructions available. Beginners welcome! Compass rental available.
Beginner courses are mostly on trail, taking an hour or hour and a half. Intermediate course is mostly off trail, taking an hour (accurate running) or two-ish hours (hiking). Advanced courses can be finished in just over an hour if running fast without mistakes, or three hours hiking with a few mistakes.
$10 per person or group ($5 with $15 annual membership)
Start any time between 12 pm and 2 pm, but please note the courses may start to come down after 3 pm, so please plan accordingly or adjust to an easier/shorter course if you arrive later.
