Mosquito Creek<\/span><\/strong>. Full details are on the web.<\/p>\n

Black Crow<\/span><\/strong>. Another nomination \u2013 probably just a nomination but they seem scarce lately so we\u2019ll go with it! This one has to do with picking up controls on Mosquito Creek. It seems someone went out to collect four controls and took much longer than seemed necessary. He said that he didn\u2019t get lost but – – – !<\/p>\n

Under the same subject matter, whilst not deserving a BC nomination, it must be mentioned: someone else (a very highly ranked orienteer of long experience in the sport) went out to pick up two controls and seemed to take a very long time (for two controls); insisted, on his return that he didn\u2019t have any problems, but he seemed rather sheepish about it!<\/p>\n
