Description: | Most of the Gunpowder Park map is gently undulating open land. The centre part is Sewardstone Marsh, which is out of bounds except for the paths, not that any sane orienteer would attempt to cross it. The southern area is badger heaven, so there may well be new small knolls which are not on the map, and there are also entrance holes to their setts, which may not be very visible. Take care. There are small urban areas to the north and west of the main competition area. |
