Lucky Peak Meet

Fires in the area and to the west are requiring us to change both meet location and date.

It has been a few years since we've had a meet at Lucky Peak. It offers the opportunity to practice navigating in mostly wild (mixed with some trail and park features) terrain close to Boise. The terrain is rough and hilly, although I will do my best to set a Sport Course that is accessible to a variety of skill levels. Please RSVP with your choice of course by Wednesday, October 16. You can RSVP either in the comments below or directly to melaniecwright@gmail.com.

COURSES:
Classic format traveling in sequential order. You're welcome to go at whatever pace you prefer.
1. Beginner Course (stats TBD): For first-timers and young navigators.
2. Sport Course (stats TBD): A good choice if it's your first time orienteering, you'd like to develop your navigation skills, or you want something less physically challenging.
2. Intermediate (stats TBD): An opportunity to apply compass-bearing and contour-reading in rugged terrain.
3. Advanced (stats TBD): Same terrain and technical ability as intermediate with a lot more endurance required and enough distance to satisfy that need to run.
Keep in mind that these distances are based on straight path distances, not the distance of your travel, that will be farther.
Meet Director reserves the right to eliminate a course option if there are not enough reservations to justify setting a course (ie, Beginner or Advanced may be dropped depending on reservations).

Liability Waivers:
Non-members please bring printed and signed liability waivers (available for download at ctoc-boise.org/pub/ctoc_ind_waiver.pdf ) from home. We will have blanks if you forget. If you are bringing a minor who is NOT your own child, you MUST bring a waiver signed by their parent or guardian.

Sturdy shoes are highly recommended; we also recommend gaiters to protect your legs and feet from brush. Some slopes are steep and unstable.

Starts from 10:00AM to 12:00AM. Course closes at 2:00PM.
