SOC Level D - Ashley Walk, New Forest

By Terry Smith , 10 December, 2022

Many thanks for coming to our Level D event today. The very cold weather seemed to take a toll on our old ecards with the result that we were unable to download some of them electronically. Thanks to those of you who took the advice to get a pin backup of your punches. That, combined with the efforts of our start and finish teams to capture your start and finish times enabled us to fill in the gaps with reasonable accuracy.

I hope that you enjoyed the forest. There was a beautiful hoar frost over the area while I hung a few controls before helping on download. It looked spectacular. TS
