I just found the link to the SNAP Newspaper’s photo gallery from this year’s MOMAR Squamish.

But enough with Squamish. It’s time to start dreaming about Shawnigan Lake!  Are you getting in some good training days (hours?)???   Be sure to check out the NEW MOMAR 301 - Advanced Navigation course with Todd Nowack that we have recently added to this year’s course list.  There are only six spots available in the July 12th clinic so please sign up early.  Here’s the course synopsis:

The MOMAR 301 clinic is an advanced navigation specific course designed by Todd Nowack, head navigator of Team Helly Hansen / MOMAR.  The goal of this course is to make you race smarter and faster by giving you Todd’s tips and tricks that will speed up your navigation abilities.  This ‘hands-on’ course will use orienteering specific maps and will consist of a series of excercies that will demostrate how you can be more effective on the maps by making smarter route choices.  If you’re looking to shave off that additional time to get closer to the podium, or if you’re simply looking to have a better understanding of how to navigate well, then this course is for you.  Participants should be comfortable with a compass, have participated in at least one previous MOMAR, and should be quick on their feet.
