It
sounded as if you all enjoyed Trina's courses. We were slightly
overwhelmed at times with numbers which we think are the highest we
have ever had on a Saturday

Comments
We had hoped to extend the map before using John Muir Country
Park
again for a SoSOL. In 2011 we were scheduled to use Lothian Edge but
access there would have been a problem in
the event of the severe weather continuing – so in January we made a
late change to JM CP.
Since we last used this venue access across the sensitive
marsh area has been prohibited and that has further restricted the
course setting options in what is already a rather limited area. I
didn’t want to use a map exchange – but that made it a struggle to set
the harder courses as sufficiently long. The Brown course visited all
corners of the map – and still ends up at the short end of the
recommended range. It was tempting to put in lots of short legs to
extend the length but that would have eliminated most route decisions.
It’s always hard to find new TD5 sites here and several
weeks of snow cover have crushed much of the undergrowth leaving the
woods particularly fast and open at the moment.
Enough of the excuses. I hope you enjoyed your course in
a glorious part of the country.
Many thanks
to Trina Rogerson for all her advice and help as Organiser and to Robin
Strain for his patient experience and expertise as he stepped into the
breach when it proved impossible to find an external Controller.
