2021-09-01 Summer Sprint Series #6 Creve Coeur Lake

Thanks to all who came out for another installment of the summer sprint series. While the 3.9km course is a bit longer than a sprint, the open fields, paths, and flat terrain proved enjoyable and fast!

The course was purposely littered with extra decoy controls. Participants did a great job reading the clue sheets accurately to find the correct controls in a short time.

The epunch system worked great. The user(that’s me) needed some work and updating. I’ve got it figured out now. Next meet will have printed splits and results immediately upon downloading. Thanks for everyone’s patience.

Below are the overall results. Below that is a link to WinSplits, which will show you the split times between each checkpoint compared to your fellow Orienteerers.
