Sometimes in orienteering, an area and an event comes along that is simply unmissable. The NSW State Middle and Long Distance Champs at Breakfast Creek in early September 2023 is such an event. Described by mapper Rob Vincent as “too good for a state champs”, this area of runnable open terrain with scattered pillars, towers, cliffs, passageways, domes and slots is an absolute sensation. An orienteering dream. We are talking international event quality terrain, and an event team of an equally high calibre - a combination that makes this event a “must do” in the 2023 O calendar, and one not to be missed.
