60 mins Score
Find as many controls as you can in any order within the time limit of 60 minutes. 10 points per control and a 5 point penalty per minute or part of a minute for exceeding the allocated time.
Competitors on the Yellow, Orange, Green and Blue courses will score KOL points in the normal way. The Brown course will have a spectator control adjacent to the finish for the other courses. The first part of the Brown course is the same as the Blue course. Competitors on Brown will score KOL points based upon their time to complete the Blue section of the course. Competitors on the Red and Short Green courses will not be eligible for KOL points.
