We are debuting a super-cool new map by Petr Hartman!

Event will have a middle + sprint format to best take advantage of this unique terrain.

The property was previously a quarry and cement plant and the map contains many remnants of human activity that make for fascinating and unique orienteering. There are many cliffs of various sizes created by the quarries and a substantial number of ruins related to the cement operations. Many of the ruins are factory-sized buildings that we are able to run through, making for terrific sprint terrain. The lakes filling the old quarries give the site a special beauty. Overall a very cool place to experience!

Directions: From US Rt 22, take PA 145 north (MacArthur Rd) for about 4.5 km. Turn left on S. Church St. After about 1.5 km, see parking on right.
