-- (c) These courses will have a separate finish. This will be marked with a control flag, not a “finish banner”.

(2) The area north of Becks Rd. (used by all courses) is frequented by trail bikes and 4WD’s. If you hear them coming – move out of their way.

(3) OLD STYLE SYMBOLS will be used. Mainly, tree-root mounds will be a brown “T”, oriented to match the direction of the fallen tree trunk.
