MVOC Woodland Trails Orienteering
The MVOC Woodland Trails Orienteering is an outdoor navigation event hosted by the Miami Valley Orienteering Club in Camden, Ohio. Participants use a detailed map and a compass to locate specific checkpoints across varied terrain. This format combines physical movement with strategy and problem-solving.
The event offers several course levels designed for different navigation skills:
- White - Beginner
- Yellow - Novice
- Orange - Advanced
- Green/Red - Elite
Participants have a time limit of two hours to find as many controls as possible on their selected course. The event organizers provide high-quality course maps, chip timing for tracking progress, and loaner compasses for those who do not have their own. One-on-one instruction is available for individuals who are new to the sport.
The event takes place at the intersection of Gasper Somers and Tucker Road. It is held regardless of weather conditions, including rain or snow. Participants are expected to wear clothing appropriate for the outdoor environment and the current weather. Registration for the event occurs online in the months leading up to the race date, with a set fee for participation. The featured distance for this adventure race category is 10 km.
