Silloth
Competition
Long Course 2.9km with 26 controls
Short Course 1.7 km with 14 controls
This is a small technical area with intricate sand dunes, there will be route choice and some rough terrain.
The significant gorse is mapped, but there are some smaller patches that are not.
Starts will be available from 5pm, so as to avoid dusk or dark. Those starting post 6 pm, may not avoid the dusk (sunset is approximately 6.35). A head torch or hand held torch may be advisable.
Full leg cover is also recommended as there are some areas of bramble, low gorse and thistles etc. Plus Marra(m) Grass :-)
The weather may be inclement so come prepared as appropriate. Please keep children away from the deep water next to the car parking area. These are technical courses, there is NO novice course. There are no road crossings.
All golf course areas including the range area are out of bounds as is the fenced off area of the Care Home. The courses are planned to avoid the golf course area, so if you find yourself on a tee, then you are possibly lost!
