What three words – elite.powers.lofts

start times: There is some flexibility, there are gaps in the start times so arrive early if you expect to take a long time.

Terrain: Mature woodland area with lots of rock features everywhere and a river running through the Northern part. Not all rocks are mapped as there are far too many! There are extra seasonal paths that are not mapped. The Southern section of the area has a mountain bike course which is not mapped.

Medium: 3.5k, 14 controls
Short: 2.1k, 8 controls<

Road Crossing: Long and medium courses use North and South parts of the area which means crossing the road between them, so take care! Short uses the Southern part only.
