Orienteering Coombs Woods NY514450 (Skill)

Orienteering Coombs Woods NY514450

I went to an orienteering event to help me learn how to read a map.

I am going to learn how to use a map and compass for my Duke of Edinburgh award.

We met the orienteering people at Coombe Wood.

I did the short course.

I had to find places using a map. When I got to the places marked on the map I had to register. These places were called ‘control points’.




It took me 53 minutes and 59 secs to complete the course.

I came 16th out of 24 entrants. 

I thought it was a little bit tiring but a good achievement.
