Past Shenanigans

• White out zones (blanked portions of the map)
• Bearing / pace references
• Dashing through the woods - follow the dashed line and find flags along the line o
• Mother / child style controls (find a map to a bonus checkpoint at a pre marked checkpoint)
• Roaming checkpoints
• "Snow covered" trails missing from map

What to Wear

• Weather is highly variable; usually we say, long pants and long sleeves; you may also want layers and gloves, hat/buff, etc. Dry clothes and shoes for after the race may come in handy as well. As we get closer, you may wish to test your outfit at your intended exertion level.
• Trail running shoes work great.
• We have loaner compasses - if you don't own one, don't buy one, try ours first.
• Bug/tick spray
