The map is removed in most parts of the course - only some circles of the map is left in some places. The runner must use the compass to get between the areas with details. There may/may not be map inside the control circles.
| Aim: | Train the use of compass. Use details that you usually wouldn't use in your orienteering. |
|---|---|
| Variants: | You can also use the No-map compass training exercise which is one step more difficult. |
| Aids: | Need OCAD to make the map. |
| Terrain: | Mostly flat, but other terrain will also do for this type of compass training when using the "non-foggy areas" smartly. |
| Preparations: | Make course with "foggy areas". See Tips_on_OCAD_usage for tips on how to make it in OCAD. |
| Tips: | Variation is always fun! This is a good way to have compass training in areas where not all of the map is suitable for compass training exercises. |
