Might the Ridley O-Riddle be a trail-O control or two...?

With Ridley FoxTrot gaining steam, a select Riddle Crew took the first crack at the Ridley Riddle last Saturday--what a blast! Yet the secret remains with us, only to be revealed to those Riddlers brave enough to take on the Ridley Riddle Challenge on December 2nd!

Hmmm. What's that, Snowy? You smell Trail-O?

Rumor has it that a certain member of the standing foot O team was seen looking at a trail-O map and seeming very interested. Hmmmm

Eddie--it would be wonderful if you can come, and there will indeed be open doors at a welcoming home nearby should you want to make a weekend of it!

What a fun event today with a fantastic turnout of 300 regular course participants and 25 challengers for the Ridley Riddle! The atmosphere was electric, and despite early morning fog, the weather cleared in time for the first starters. The Junior Fun(d)raser Refreshments by Janet Porter were a true hit, as many enjoyed hot chocolate, hot dogs, and homemade chicken noodle and vegetable soups! We had fifteen on-site membership renewals and new members participate in the Ridley Raffle!

Check out the photos and videos of the event!

Thank you, Dasha! It was great fun. You and the course setters and volunteers did a wonderful, much appreciated job. Everything was so well-organized and smooth. I enjoyed everything, and found the Riddle a lot of fun. Doing that after the regular course - which now has one of my favorite all-time controls (inside the ruin) - really rounded out the day nicely. And Janet's always delicious soup was perfect when I was all done!

I just enjoyed the trail-O from the comfort of my recliner. And even did quite well! Thanks for the opportunity.

Glad you enjoyed it. I guess there is not a lot of outside orienteering in Alaska this time of year.
