Taupo Arboretum 20th June results

Arboretum results - 20th June

It was a very wet morning so it was surprising that anyone at all turned up. However, a few intrepid ones arrived just as the rain eased somewhat and enjoyed the various permutations of the controls as in the table below.


Name time Type of course controls comment
Chris 36 mins memory all
Steve 46mins memory All Found an extra control!
Craig 44mins Memory bike all
Jeremy 34 mins memory Most
Jim ?? memory All
Jocelyn ?? memory most
Susan 11mins points 7

Since it was such bad weather at the event time and it is possible to leave the controls out without risk of disturbance, the course will be available next weekend, Saturday or Sunday morning on a self service basis.

The controls will be picked up after 1.30 pm on Sunday 27th June

The map and instructions are posted on the CD website attached to the event .

Since this is a new concept ( brought about by weather considerations) but potentially capable of being carried out on at least some other event sites, please advise me by email if you have done the course, so we can gauge if there is any merit in trying this again.

Results from Taharepa street sprint 28th Feb
28 February 2010
What a hot day!! It was a lovely day , but we all learnt that a street sprint in Taupo does involve some climb unless its along the lakeside reserve area. Without street signs on the map, you also had to keep in close touch with features too. Thanks to Chris who is steadily mapping the whole of Taupo from the old airport map to Nukuhau.
