We will be at the Adirondack Camp, which is on the park road about halfway between the Visitor Center and the campground. Start and Finish will be at the entrance to the camp, so drive past, find a place to park, and walk back. You will still need to pay for parking - best to take care of that at the visitor center on your way in if you do not have an annual pass.

Upper level courses will make a bee line for the Flat Rock area, run around, then come back. If you have never orienteered in the flat rock, then this is your chance!

To maintain the health and safety of all participants and volunteers during the COVID-19 pandemic, GAOC is implementing special rules for event participants. Please review and follow the GAOC Pandemic Rules.
