Member Training: Using Distance and Elevation - Navigating and Visualizing

  • March 16, 2024 10:00 a.m. - noon

  • Mt. Tabor Park in southeast Portland

  • For CROC members only

We’ll learn and practice how far on the map means how far on the ground, uphill and downhill. Then we’ll practice estimating visually how steep and how far away something is. This is valuable in the field on a course leg: if you pass the rock about 15 meters away, are you on the best line of travel? Mt. Tabor offers a variety of elevation differences and distances, so we have lots of opportunities.

This training is for CROC members only; there is no cost. Register here by March 14, and we’ll send you the exact starting point. For questions and suggestions contact trainer Anndy.
