LAURENTIAN ROGAINE Prévost, Piedmont, St-Hippolyte, Ste-Adèle - Québec September 29, 2001 - 12 Hour Event A Map and Compass Adventure Sport ROGAINE is an acronym for a Rugged Outdoor Group Activity Involving Navigation and Endurance. Originating in Australia, it is rapidly becoming popular in North America. Participants in a Rogaine come from diverse backgrounds: Hikers, Runners, Orienteers, Adventure racers, Eco-challengers, Search and Rescue personnel, Outdoor groups, Hunters, Military, Police and Fire department personnel. The basic idea of a Rogaine is simple: Teams consisting of two or more people visit as many controls as possible and return to the finish in the time allotted. The most important skill is the ability to read a map. It is also important that team-mates work well together. Each participant is given a printed topographic map with control locations circled on it prior to the start. Each control will be marked in the field by an orange and white triangular flag. Each team will use a pin punch located at the flag to punch a card to prove that they were at the location. Each team will have a listing of the description of where each flag is hung (ex. Hilltop, Valley, Field corner, etc). Time: The event will start at 9 am on September 29, 2001. Registration will open at 7 am. There will be a mandatory briefing session at 8:15 am followed by the distribution of the maps. The event will end at 9 pm. The Map: The map is a 1:30,000 scale modified topographic map. All trails have been GPS surveyed and added to the topographic map. The map has a contour interval of 10 meters. The map will have magnetic north lines printed on it for compass users. Categories: Competitive categories will be Men's Open, Women's Open, and Coed Open. Rules: No vehicular transport is allowed during the event. No aid from others is allowed during the event. Food/supply drops prior to the event are prohibited. For safety reasons, team members must stay in sight and speaking distance throughout the event. Scoring: Each control will have a score associated with it (easy locations will have a lower score than the tougher locations). Each team's final score will be determined by adding up the score from each location visited. Teams that return after the finish time will have their total score reduced for each minute overtime (10 points per minute). Terrain: The area consists of many hills and some major cliffs. An extensive trail system - mostly backcountry ski trails - exists in the area. The area is about 90% forested and the runnability is variable. Equipment: Participants are expected to carry everything they will need during the event. Each team member must carry a whistle, compass and water bottle. Participants should plan on carrying enough water for the event. There will be water at some controls but only the most remote. Also recommended are food, long pants, extra clothes and socks, first aid supplies and a small pack for carrying supplies.
