The 2012 races were great successes with the group moving through this course faster than any group has before. I want to thank the members of this forum who came and placed well. The Team winners from the Elite race were Sappers from the board as well as the second placed team and several others including the Elite Singles. I saw one of the gutsiest performances I have ever seen by an SF racer who finished all points and placed despite serious leg cramping. Another racer from one of the above teams refused med treatment from dehydration and cramping until after he made it over the finish line saying " you are interfering with my race".
This course had serious terrain with large elevation changes and fast paces. The weather was about as good as it gets with no lightening on the lake...which is always a good thing. I will post a few images that show how thick and step some of the terrain can be and one of the beautiful orienteering points. Tatonka it is always good to see you sir. Thank you again!!
Sarski your intel is up to date, "millionaires are worried about the billionaires" that is the motto at the Highlands Country Club.
