Question & Answers

Q: Will be any built, artificial fence on the terrain? A: No. There are enough fences and hedges without them. Q: What about private areas? Will it be easily remarkable? Will it be guided? A: It will be clear, where you can enter and where not. Most of them is inside fences. If it is out of fences, olive green parts will be marked. Q: What percentage of the course will be on paved roads? A: Depends on your route choice. Q: Any warm-up map? A: No.

Q: There is a complicated, multileveled building on the old map. What about it on the competition map? A: Impossible to show it on a correct way on the map, so courses will avoid them. Q: How the possible to cross hedges are marked on the map? A: Mostly we have dark green on the map, there are almost always with fences. If it is possible to cross, it is light green. Q: If the control and the lines are close to each other, are the lines blended? A: It is easy to understand.

Q: Are any hedges marked as impossible to cross, on which there are wholes/places to cross. A: Could happen, but not usual. If it is marked as impossible to cross, do not try it.

We wish to all the participants good luck ! EYOC 2015 Organizing Team
