Gold Zone Expedition Training (ZET) Program

Happening this weekend: 16-18 Sept 2001

Gold Star Cadets will be divided into teams of no more than 5 and no less than 2 and will be comprised of mixed gender, and should be as equal in cumulative skill level as possible.  The Gold Enduro-Challenge is a timed race. 
The first ‘leg’ of the Challenge involves a personal and team equipment check, map plotting, strategy development & route card creation, followed by a mountain bike orienteering course. 
The second ‘leg’ of the Challenge involves a foot hike entirely navigated by application of a GPS unit. 
The third “leg” of the Challenge involves a terrain-hike and tandem paddling of a defined canoe route – including multiple portages - followed by an additional foot race before crossing the finish line.
