Fort Yargo State Park
Sunday, 9/15/2013

Intermediate and advanced courses will be on the south side of the lake so crossing the long bridge will be required. Do this with respect to other visitors of the park using the bridge. The map has been drawn with 2.5m contours and printed at 1:7500. At this scale a little more effort has been put into detailed features and depicting runnability. Levels of runnability is a significant navigation feature on this park and time of year. Long, protective leg wear is advised for those who might bushwack.

Epunch is required on all courses.
