What is orienteering?
Using a pre-marked, detailed, topographical map, navigate through a series of checkpoints. The route between them is entirely to you - go around a hill or over, hop a log or scoot under, take a lengthy but high speed trail option or cut cross country to save distance - the choice is yours!
