ARDF Results Dec 19-20, 2020
It was a beautiful cool day on Saturday for the 2m event. We started about 1k from the house at Birkhead Wilderness, Thornburg Farm Trailhead on top of a ridge. Both days Charles had a 300m start exclusion zone and 400m exclusion zone for the finish. Charles had a sheltered registration area on the back porch of the house.
On Sunday it was pretty gloomy with light rain until about noon. All the equipment worked in spite of the weather. Charles used an area of the map that we rarely visit for two of the transmitters. Two beginners, Ashley and Jonathan, got a short class from Nadia and then did a fantastic job finding 4 of the transmitters. That is pretty unusual for beginners. We hope they will be back.
Many trees have come down since the map was made so we had a lot of dodging around to go where we wanted to. This affected transmitter placement as well as navigation. The water was high Sunday because of the rain, especially going to the start. Part of the bridge, which is off of its supports now, was under the water which was still flowing hard. No matter how much we may have avoided the major stream crossings, our feet certainly got wet.
Many thanks to Charles who designed the courses, set everything and picked up the controls with some help from William. We were very fortunate to have two days of ARDF.
The ideal order for the 2m course was S-3-4-5-1-2-B-F
The ideal route for all five foxes depends on how one intended to cross the creek to get to the finish. If taking the footbridge, then the optimum route would be S-3-1-5-4-2-B-F. But if you were willing to cold-foot it through the creek then it would be shorter to go S-3-2-4-1-5-b
B–F. Published course lengths assumed that competitors would opt for the footbridge.
