This week we ran an event for 65 people on our coolest course yet. Based at Scenic World in the Blue Mountains, teams had to track down about 25 checkpoints using GPS units, compasses, walkie talkies, and aerial maps.
To access the checkpoints, groups used the Skyway, Scenic Railway, and Cable Car at Scenic World. These rides provided stunning views of the 3 Sisters, Katoomba Falls, Orphan Rock, and the World Heritage listed Blue Mountains National Park. Our international guests were amazed at the sites.
Corporate Orienteering is a points based activity and teams visit as many checkpoints and complete as many other challenges as possible, in a set time frame. A $1000 prize for the winners kept the teams interested.
After the scoring deadline, our guests enjoyed a lunch while we tallied team totals. The presentation ceremony took place at a historic pub in Central Katoomba.
Congratulations to Team 1 “The Kangaroos” with a winning score of 498 points.
