Pre-registration is now closed. Please register at the event. (Generally
pre-registration is available through the Thursday before an event.)
Details:
We'll be offering the standard white and yellow courses for
beginners, orange for intermediate, and red and green for advanced
orienteerers. NOTE:
There will be a lot of controls in the woods at this meet -- please
be sure to match the number on the control to the number on your
clue sheet. You need to punch in the controls in order to count
as an official finisher. When out on the course, please use the
shoulder and sidewalk **not the road** when crossing the river near
Glenview or Golf Roads.
FOOD! Members and
guests are invited to join CAOC for a cook-out starting at 1pm.
We will have hamburgers, hotdogs, and salads, plus you are welcome
to bring your own favorites as well. We hope to see you there!
Harms Woods is the wildest and most northern of our three maps
along the North Branch, and is characterized by a large sloping
hillside along the west side of the River that is intercut by a
dozen or more reentrants, white and light-green woods and only a
scant trail system. It is a technically challenging area with many
point features such as depressions, rootstocks, and man-made objects.
Directions(Driving):
Take the Eden's Expwy (I-94) 7.5 miles north (west) of the Kennedy
(I-90) to Exit 35 (Old Orchard Rd). Turn left (west) and continue
forward into the parking area. Watch for the orange-and-white orienteering
signs.
Public Transit:Take the El to the Davis station
in Evanston. Transfer to #208-Golf bus (bus leaves Davis every half
hour starting at 8:43). Get off at the forest preserve and walk
to registration (1/4 mile or less).
