Location and Time
Saturday May 24th Starting at 10:00 ending Sunday May 25th 4:00

Google Maps coordinates 39.3669785, -105.2461592

This year we will be combing our land nav course with a fieldcraft course designed as prep for the Warfighter Challenge the following weekend.
Topics covered will include Land Navigation, Entrenchment, Obstacle negotiation, and more.
Required Equipment
-Lensatic or orienting style compass
-1:25 Map Protractor
-Map Pens
-Map Will be provided

Saturday we will be covering the basics of land nav, and set off to find points individually in the afternoon. At dusk we will set off to find 3 further points at night.

Sunday starting at 10 we will cover the basics of obstacle negotiation, This will include building a rope bridge, Swiss seats, and “a” frame construction.
It is CRUCIAL that you RSVP for this even if you would like to find points. They take some time to set up and we would prefer to not have to set up points that no one will be looking for.
Email ([email protected]), IM me or respond to this thread if you are interested. Also bring your nods if you have them. We will have options for a night hike an potentially more.

It's not about if you win or lose. It's about how many rules they have to add afterwards.
