60 mins Score
All distances on the above line courses are measured in straight lines.
The controls on the Score course can be done in three sets, numbered in the 50's, 60's and 70's. No set course to follow. Find as many controls in any one set then move to a different set and finish on the final set.
Alternatively you can treat all 30 controls as available to visit in any order.
No need to decide which option you want to do in advance.
You have a time limit of 60 minutes for either Score course option with penalties for exceeding the allocated time.
