North Neighborhood Park (AKA North Lynnwood Park) is a super-tiny 1:1,000-scale flat and open park. It is the definition of a very beginner park where young elementary school kids can’t get lost, and also an example of a suitable challenge for a beginner mapper’s first map.

CascadeOC supports many permanent courses over a large geographic area and our volunteers have limited time to keep up with maintenance. If you observe any damaged, obscured, or missing markers, or if you can help regularly monitor and maintain this permanent course, please let us know. Thanks for your help!

The purpose of providing these navigational and physical ratings below is to provide greater context for how challenging an orienteering course at this venue might be. For example, an advanced-level course at a local city park will be easier to complete than an advanced-level course in the mountains.
