Details
Limb Valley is a lovely place and the sunshine showed it at its best today. From an orienteering viewpoint, it is a tough, physical area with some very steep slopes.
My thanks go to helpers on the day - Colin Smith who ran the start/finish, Melinda for registration and Nic Barber, Colin Best, Chas & Julian Hird and Aidan Smith who collected in controls.Thanks too to Peter Gorvett for his help before the event.
Thanks to all the competitors, some of whom came a fair distance. I hope you enjoyed yourselves.
Safety & risk
A comprehensive risk assessment will have been carried out by the organiser, but participants take part at their own risk and are responsible for their own safety during the event. If a competitor has a pre-existing medical condition that they think should be declared, please complete a medical form at enquiries. The sealed envelope will only be opened in an emergency.

The woodland is mixed conifer and deciduous. Much of it is very runnable though partly steep valley sides, but there are patches of bramble and holly.
