The NRE 1 awards will now be on-site at Fisk State Park shortly after courses close.

The Flying Goat does not take reservations and it can get very busy on Saturday nights. Be aware that we will not necessarily be sitting together and you may have to wait for a table.

You are also welcome to join fellow orienteers at the Bowl & Pitcher Group Camp #1 (bring your own food). If you opt for the group camp, DO NOT PARK in the group lot unless you are already registered to camp there. You must park in the main lot and walk down.

Course Notes (posted as they become available)

Montana Training opportunity

We are offering a training opportunity for anyone who gets to Missoula early or simply wants some more orienteering. We have two courses (Long – 5.4km and Short – 3.4km) in some of the most beautiful woods on Missoula’s Blue Mountain map, with parking at the AA Trailhead. The controls are marked with small training O-flags and will remain out through PNWOF.

Start times

All events will have individual pre-assigned start times.  Times will be posted on EventReg.

Timing system

We will use the SPORTident electronic timing and punching system for all events. All competitors are required to use an SI-Card to participate. If you don’t own your own, sign up to rent one when you register ($3/event or $15 for the entire festival). Contactless (Air+) punching may be used for some events: check event pages.

Malfunction

If the SI unit fails (you don’t hear a beep or see a flash), use the manual pin punch to punch your map.
