The Australasian Rogai ning Championships were run from 15-16 March. The controls that have bee n set for the event need to be collected. Using the map prepared for the Championships we will assist in collecting remaining controls with the intention of using the exercise for navigation instruction and practice. Navigation will be by map and compass with participants taking it in tu rns to practice their navigation. The number of people that can attend w ill depend on the number of experienced navigators that would like to as sist. The intention is to have two inexperienced participants with each experienced navigator with people navigating alternate legs. However, ot her arrangements may be needed if there are insufficient experienced lea ders. There will be opportunities to collect controls at night for those that are interested in practicing night navigation. The vegetation vari es from open grassland to moderately dense forest and the terrain from f lat plains to steep hills. Most of the walking will be off-track. We wil l camp in one of the National Park campsites on both Friday and Saturday night, so we will be doing two day-walks. There are a number of old cat tlemen’s huts as well as Cooleman Caves and Blue Waterholes, and I wou ld hope to visit at least a couple of these locations.
