That means nothing to me. We're orienteers, not geocachers. Give me a map any day.

We are - but quite a few are techies as well! Indeed, there is an O related activity near each point; and NO trinkets.

And I said: "For you, GNSS/GPS users"

Actually, coordinates work just fine with a map, too...

No insult intended, I know some folks love this stuff. My point was, how about including a link to traditional map / directions as well.

You can just copy/paste those numbers into Google Maps and get something like Hopewell Rocks. But by presenting them as numbers, they also work for anybody who is using a GPS.

Mike, I can't tell if you realize that NEOC#1 is not one of the organizers, but another participant who shared what he figured out in case it was helpful to anyone else. Seems a bit demanding to complain that he didn't link to Google maps too.

Bingo Carol! Adrian: Useful overview map.

The COC2015 site has interactive map links to all venues.

Bummed that I couldn't do the Atlantic Bottom O today. Totally unique!
