The map remains quite accurate apart from the development south of Springfield which has taken a bite out of the map and is now OOB (clearly marked and no reason to enter); so there will be a bit of a track run to go around this on the longer courses (200m). The moderate course is great for kids wishing to practice route choice and the easy and very easy are very safe and yet still have some nice challenges (generally going around the big water tanks in the middle of map for those who know the area). The Hard 4 and 5 has been deliberately kept short and as contour free as possible whereas the Hard 2 and Hard 3 have some ups and downs on the second half of the course as it heads further West. There is limited water on course.
