this is an "unofficial" event that is going to be held during dw02. if you have a handheld gps(global position), bring it. does not have to mount on bike. in fact it is better if not on bike.
the event is basically a treasure hunt along the trails/property at cooperland. you use your gps to find each "location". the object is to find all the "locations" in the fastest possible time. three people to a team(only one gps is needed).
i have some really cool trophy plaques for each member of the 3 fastest teams.
it goes like this..............
1. come by the heartland spode camp and look for my white f150 w/a black camper top to sign in. there will be a notebook. enter your team name and pick up first "location" coordinates.
2. note your start time and hit the trail to look for the first "location". i will have an orange cone where you need to get off the bike and start looking for the "location" with your gps. when you find the "location", there will be the coordinates for the next "location" there will be at least 5 "locations" to find.
3.after finding the indicated last "location", stop your watch.
4.come back to my truck and enter the time needed to complete the course.
i should have the course completed by 1:00 on thursday. you can do the course anytime between then and 4:00 on sat. this way you can do all of the other events that you may want to participate in.
the only gps skill you need to know is how to enter in a coordinate and navigate to it. if you need help, i can probably figure it out.
