Veteran's Three Day Weekend Pt. Orienteering Navigating with the aid of a map and compass through wilderness terrain is the most basic backcountry skill and gives you the freedom to wander. To better aid you in mastering these skills, OA presents this two-part course with a classroom session and a full weekend of field work. The course includes map and compass use, the theory behind their development, and a lot of hands-on experience. OA provides a compass, map and instruction.
Transportation is by carpool.
The trip is designed for the beginner, but all levels are welcome. Keep in mind that mountain biking can be physically demanding. Participants must provide their own appropriate mountain bike, which should be brought to the classroom session. Rentals from the Bike Barn are an option. Food and transportation are the responsibility of the participants and are arranged at the classroom session.
