Interesting Orienteering Terrain Types

The sprint is here to stay, and even shorter/more detailed formats are being invented. These are mostly held in urban areas. But on the way to some of our rural maps we pass a lot of old-established farmyards, with buildings, big old trees, hedges, fences, disused machinery, and sheep yards.   Michael Posted: 6 October 2015, 8:09 AM   The tendency to seek out detail is accelerating. In some areas it has surpassed common sense, with wiggles the size of a double pace shown on the map. Just back from Oz, and reminded of the pleasure and challenge of crossing vague, featureless terrain. We need more.
