Route to Christmas: Day 10

Todays leg is leg 5 from the Hungarian competition Borsod Kupa 2007 at 2007-06-02 for the category M21E. The tip is from Stig Alvestad – thank you very much to Stig!

First take a look at the map without routes – and think about how you would attack this leg (if the image is too small, you may click on it to get it larger – and click outside the image again to close it):

Update 2020: WebRoute

Back in 2007 there was no WebRoute in Route to Christmas – this has now been added to all old ‘Route to Christmas’ in March 2020. You can draw your own route using the ‘Webroute’ below. Think through how you would attack this leg, and draw the route you would have made.

Then you can take a look at how the runners who have drawn their route choice solved this leg:

  1. The best leg time was 14:13 (!) by Ádám Kovács (1:37:22 at the end), with a route going all the way around. Exiting the control like the light blue, but then running down almost until the asphalt road. Then north-east and finally up in the big valley. No orienteering needed and only ~15m of extra climb compared to the route of Krejci!

  2. yes it’s true! I won this leg:) I ran almost the same like the blue one except the last 200 m.
