Temu Road Coast - 2024

- Опубліковано 25 сер 2024
- The map is part of Woodhill Forest on the West coast, an hour North of Auckland. This is a newly mapped area of forest, with some fast running combined with areas of green, ridges and coastal dunes. A bit of everything - pretty tough - a lot of people had a long, long day. Quite a few MPs and DNFs
My first 5 controls were good, but 6 was pretty average - headed too far right into a green area. Sadly my GoPro ran out of batteries. The rest was very good, except for the last control where I had to relocate...and we'll never see it... 3rd today

Red 4 - 3.3km (ran 6km), 15 controls - Thanks to James and David, and AOC for organising.
So many memories...
Hopefully good memories :)
Tough terrain to navigate. Lot's of foilage. I would be lost very soon.
You do get used to it - very typical forest for Auckland - but to be fair, I did get lost going to 6. Went to the wrong ridge and couldn't see the contours because of all the green. It was only when I saw the road that I realised I was a few hundred metres east of where I thought I was :)
@@gmilne13 Yeah, that's the thing. You cant see the contours because of the foliage. That's very hard for me as well.
Hi Gavin, I teach orienteering at university. Could we discuss privately about the rights of use of part of this video please ?
Messaged you :)
