Event Director: Joey McGarvey
Course Setter: Ian Whitehead
Notes: Brendan Byrne State Forest has the distinctive terrain of the New Jersey pine barrens, with sandy soil, pine and oak forest, and subtle topography. You will need to read the map closely, using gullies, mounds, and low hills for navigation. Vertical slash on the map indicates low blueberry and other undergrowth, which is still crossable at a fast pace. There are not many thorns. The mapping is very accurate. Be warned that sometimes dry gullies look like trails and vice versa. Also many features mapped as mounds might look like rootstocks, and vice versa. The Jersey Devil is known to roam these parts, so be on the lookout!
Additionally, note the inclusion of a Non-Competitive 60-Minute Score-O option, based on feedback received over the fall that some beginners prefer the Score-O format to a more competitive standard course. This will be on the all-controls map; it does not count toward rankings and is intended only for those who don't wish to do a standard course.
