Courses
| Course description: | We are also offering Technical Training: Map Memory - Choose 'Training Course' on Pre-entries if you would like to enter. For this course, you will receive a sealed map, to only open when absolutely necessary. Instead of normal map reading, each control will have the next section of map attached. The catch? You can't take it with you! You will need to pick out the key features you need to get between each control, simplifying so you only need to remember key features. The course will be similar to the Green Course. Can you complete the whole course without opening your map? |
