The extreme northeastern part of the Burton Creek map may be used as a training area. You must stay north of the stream that runs from the NW tothe SE in this portion of the map. It is the same area that was used for training at the Sierra 2000 2 years ago. Joe and James Scarborough said they would be out there Friday, ?time, and could provide maps and may be hanging some streamers or controls. Contact Joe for further details if you are interested in doing some training in this area.

The marked course will be something like a short Brown, about 10 controls in 2.87 km with shortcut alternatives of 1.93 and 1.28.
The course will be unmanned. Reserved maps with names will be at the start, 70 meters north of the trail junction as shown on the map (at website.) This map is the only guide to the start so you may want to have a copy with you. There will be pink ribbons to follow near the start.
As of 2:00 pm there are about a dozen sign-ups
