Lower Sunrise / Sacramento Bar

May 18, 2025

Lower Sunrise, Brown and Red #1

It was a great cool morning at Lower Sunrise for orienteering. Thanks to all who attended and got to enjoy the 5 courses set by Jonas Libell. The yellow and orange courses got the most action for the day, and there was some particularly devious control placement on the red course north of the river.

The vegetation was thick off trail and I'm sure several people went home with one less pair of socks then they came with.
