[roc-info] Updated information on orienteering meet tomorrow (Webster Park)

[Richard Detwiler]

Here is the final information on courses, including estimates of climb:

Course 	Controls 	Length 	Climb
White 	7 	1.3 km 	10 m
Yellow 	11 	2.2 km 	35 m
Orange 	14 	4.4 km 	80 m
Brown 	12 	3.7 km 	70 m
Green 	13 	5.8 km 	90 m
Red 	17 	7.6 km 	120 m


Also, please be aware that some of the controls and/or route choices are 
fairly close to the park boundaries. Boundaries shown on the map are 
quite accurate, and in addition, there is almost always some reasonably 
obvious posted signs and park boundary signs. Please be careful not to 
go onto private property.

Be aware also that this is reportedly a bad spring for ticks (not just 
in Webster Park, but in general). Insect repellent containing DEET is 
recommended, plus make sure to do a thorough tick check after the meet 
and remove any ticks promptly.

One last piece of information -- there are a couple of trails about 500 
meters south of the tennis courts, a little west of Holt Rd, that are 
exceptionally muddy. If you've been on these trails in previous springs, 
you may know which ones they are. I've indicated on the map that these 
trails are muddy. Most courses won't have these as an attractive route 
choice, but one or two may. So just be aware that you'll get wet and 
muddy if you do decide to take these trails! But you'll get to rinse off 
your feet by, only a little bit later, fording Mill Creek.
