Country n+1, Israel!
National league event in Ta'oz, near the Burma Road.
Lovely orienteering, dry and sunny and sparse trees with various amounts of undergrowth and stony ground, mostly runnable. Some experience would have helped with recognising stone walls and knolls, but mostly it was not too hard. Went off in the wrong direction a couple of times, which I could blame on the lack of compass, but there was no excuse really. Maybe lost 5 mins total. Nowhere near fast boys' 63odd.
Of the order of 500 participants. Only one came up to me and said hi, what are you doing in Israel?
