Discussion: Two-map Score-O lasting total of 6-hours

I read that Controls on map B punched before the finish control is punched by the A SI-card will not count. (If you punch one by mistake you will not be penalized, it just will not count unless you go back and punch it again after you are finished with map A and punch finish with your A SI-card)

Same format as Ellicottville 6-hour mini-rogaine

btw, in that event, going back out with map B with just one hour left, was brutal: folks at HQ finish area were already cooking hotdogs and chillin' out...

Well, the start/finish is down a trail and across the road from the pavilion where the food will be so perhaps it will be a bit easier to convince yourself to go back out on this one!

I know exactly what sherpes is talking about at last year's Ellicottvile mini-rogaine ... my partner and I came back from map A with about an hour left, and we were pretty wiped out. We looked at Map B and saw no controls very close by and none that didn't involve a significant climb back up the ski slope. Between our lack of energy, the lack of any easily reachable controls, and the smell of hotdogs cooking, it made our decision not to go back out an easy one ...

Seems like for sensible planning of your time, you ought to be able to see both maps up front. Then you can decide whether to completely clean A, or come in earlier and start on B sooner.

Competitors will get both maps at Hickory Run before the race starts in order to plan how they want to approach things and can take both maps with them for the entire race.
