North West Orienteering Club (NWOC) celebrated its 40th birthday in December. To celebrate, it laid on a score orienteering event in Limavady’s Roe Valley Country Park. Little did I know that it was going to be a “Back to the Future” experience.
Map of Roe Valley Country Park from 40 odd years ago… some details have changed a bit since then.
We had 45 minutes to visit as many controls as possible, with scores for each ranging from 10 to 30 points. The only difference was that we had not one but two maps to work from. That would have been fine, only one of the maps was from 2012 and the other was from the 1970s.
