The ACT Champs returned to a favourite area la st used for the ACT Champs in 2012 and Au stralian Champs in 2017 with our star course setters Jean Douglass and Ron Simpson.
It was about 75 minutes
to drive to the HH area from central Canberra, mostly on sealed Monaro High
way with the last 5 kms on a good gravel road.
The area is mo
stly very open going with dry eucalypt fore
st cover. The elevation goes from 800m to 1,090m with mostly gradual hills.
The course area is almost scrub free except for some larger creeks and it
is easily avoided. Most of the area is privately owned yet not farmed. Ther
e are some old gold diggings and firetrails cross the course. The landowner
s have been very generous in allowing this event. There is free campi
ng at the Hash House site on Lyn and Lucky's property (our very favourite l
andowners). Registration will open at 9am on Saturday 20th April
and both the 24hr and 8hr events will be a mass start at midday. &nbs
p;
It was also Barkley the koala's 1 2th birthday. Catering was ACTRA managed, and we haven't done it for many years. A big thanks to people who did the 8 hour event and helped with catering for the 24 hour teams.
Entries cost $60 full and $47 concession. Under 14 free. No solo entries for this event - teams of 2 to 5 people.
