Spring into Action 6 hour / |
|
Course Description
The rogaine area was in the south-east ACT near Mt Clear and the Naas River, with additional private property to the south. Altitude varied from 1100-1400m. There were beautiful clear grassy valleys, open eucalypt forest and dried up boggy spots. The course was set to avoid scrubby sections, helped by some handy fire trails. The course was suitable for rogainers of all abilities - easy closer to the HH - yet challenging navigation further out. The full moon was beaming and spring in the air.
