https://eastpennineoc.org.uk/orienteering-at-anytime/
Three courses of approx 1.5 to 1.8km (straight line distance). All courses will have some climb/steps.
Courses may contain loops with some controls visited more than once (your phone/watch may bleep multiple times at these controls until you move out of the circle, this is normal).
Please respect areas marked as out of bounds and do not attempt to cross any features marked as uncrossable.
The courses may cross residential and busy streets, please take care when crossing roads and watch out for vehicles.
ESPECIALLY TAKE CARE NEAR MORRISONS AS VEHICLES ENTER AND EXIT THE CAR PARK.
If you only wish to do one course and did a short course at the recent Meltham urban race the best course to do will be Course A.
Please download all courses in advance (your home WiFi will be more reliable than mobile data in Meltham!).
