Pre-registration has closed, but you can register at the event.
The Bay Area Orienteering Club returns to the quiet pine forests of Boggs Mountain for its fourth weekend A-meet at this venue that many consider the finest orienteering terrain in Northern California. The event will be a weighted combined-time two-day meet, with a Long course on Saturday and a Middle course on Sunday.
Orienteers of all levels of skill and experience, and of all ages, are welcome!
In conjunction with the A-Meet events, there will also be White, Yellow, and Orange recreational courses with day-of-meet registration (see below). These courses are perfect for beginners, hikers, or casual orienteers. Free beginner instruction will also be provided. Don’t be afraid to attend this event because it's an "A-meet". That simply means this will be a high-quality event — that, plus the excellent venue, means this is your chance to experience orienteering at its best.
In addition to everything below, please read the Event Director's Notes for more information.
Lake County
Lake County is a hilly, rural region, about a two-hour drive from San Francisco, Oakland, or Sacramento, and just one mountain ridge north of Napa Valley. It is known for its recreational opportunities, its vibrant new wine industry, and the cleanest air in California. Clear Lake, the largest natural freshwater lake in California, is the recreational hub of the county and is just a short drive from Boggs Mountain. You can explore activities, attractions, accommodations, and more here (http://www.lakecounty.com).
Embargo
Since this is an A-meet, Boggs Mountain Forest is now embargoed until the weekend of the meet. Anyone who visits the area before then may still compete, but is not eligible for ranking points or awards.
Boggs Mountain Terrain
Boggs Mountain State Demonstration Forest (http://www.boggsmountain.org/SF_Explore.htm) is really a plateau topped with a series of small hilltops. The area is covered with a very runnable pine forest, and the slopes are fairly gradual over most of the plateau. The average elevation is about 3000 feet above sea level.

Potluck Dinner & Campfire
There will be a potluck dinner 5:30 Saturday evening at the Boggs campground (i.e., at the event center). The club will provide plates, cups, utensils, and various beverages. You can sign up here (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AkYuwMAxP4YGdHZ2UnNGQU1Qd0lYTDVXQ2RfdkZOclE) to indicate you're coming and what you'll bring. Keep in mind that this is a primitive campsite — there is no electricity, so cooking is only on camp stoves or charcoal.
After the dinner, there will be a campfire jam. Come and sing along or just watch if you'd like. We're hoping that some people will bring their musical instruments (guitar, fiddle, ukulele, harmonica, banjo, zydeco tie, etc.). Nancy will bring some instruments to share (shakers, tambourines, maracas).
We've arranged for some small pieces of wood. Does anyone have some logs to share? How about smores for the young or young at heart, or are they too "old fashioned"?
Everyone is invited to participate in the dinner and/or the campfire.
A-Meet Awards
Awards will be presented for the standard 51 classes for an Orienteering USA A-Meet. (A table showing the classes can be found here (http://orienteeringusa.org/eventregister#osignup-how).)
We will combine the times for the two days (according to an algorithm not yet finalized) to produce one set of winners, and therefore one set of awards for the weekend.
Recreational Courses
In addition to the A-meet courses, there will be Beginner (White and Yellow) and Intermediate (Orange) recreational courses on both Saturday and Sunday. Register on the day of the event for these courses. Normal BAOC event fees apply. Start windows and course closing times are the same as for the A-meet schedule. These courses will be of the same high quality as the A-meet courses, but will not be counted in the A-meet results or earn Orienteering USA ranking credit.
There will be free beginners’ clinics on each day. These will take place next to the registration area from 9:30–10:30 AM.
Please note: If you are planning to bring a group of 5 or more, please contact the at least 10 days prior to the event, so we can print enough maps.

Boggs Mountain Map
The map was field checked and drawn in OCAD (http://www.ocad.com/en/index.htm) in 2006 and 2007 by Vladimir Zherdev under the direction of Bob Cooley, BAOC Mapping Director. The map is of high quality. Bob will be printing the maps for the two A-meet days. The contour interval is 5 meters. The map scale is 1:10000 for all the courses both days, except the Saturday Red and Blue Long courses are printed at 1:15000.
Recognition of vegetation is important. The open forest is mapped as white and is very fast. Light green is usually younger trees close together — it is also quite fast. Medium green can be forest mixed with bushes and slash — it is a slow run. Dark green is mostly mature manzanita bushes — it is sometimes impassable, but not always. The non-forest areas of bushes are mapped as two types of green vertical lines. The widely-spaced vertical lines indicate bushy areas that can easily be run through. In the areas with closely-spaced vertical lines, it takes more time and effort to get around the bushes, but these areas are also passable. The mapper has used black dots to indicate many distinct vegetation edges. The distinctness of these edges is not always evident. Some vegetation edges that are not indicated by black dots can appear quite distinct.
Boggs Forest is crisscrossed by an extensive network of roads and trails. Many of these linear features can be a bit hard to see, mainly due to the pine needles that cover them in various thicknesses. Each of them is represented on the map as either a road, a vehicle track, a large or small footpath, an indistinct footpath, or a narrow ride. In this assortment, most of the abandoned logging roads are mapped as narrow rides. A narrow ride will appear in the forest as a less than distinct, abandoned track that has the width of a vehicle track. Narrow rides could be covered with pine needles, slash, broken ground, or bushes. An indistinct footpath is similar, but much narrower.
The map contains a myriad of different rock features. Generally, boulders over one meter high are mapped. Many boulders smaller than one meter are also mapped, but these tend to be distinct in the terrain. Some of these smaller boulders will be used as control points. There are many dot knolls on the map, including a few anthills.
Hazards
Firearms are allowed in most areas of the forest at any time, although there are no hunting seasons planned at this time of the year. There is an informal shooting range in the southeast area of the park. This range is occasionally used. It is mapped as out of bounds with purple grid lines. Courses will not be set close to this range, although you may hear the gunshots.
The courses could encounter small patches of poison oak (PO), but they can be avoided easily. In the fall, most leaves of PO have either become red or have fallen, leaving bare stick bushes. These sticks still contain the oils. If you see any PO, go around it, not through it. The potency of the oils is not strong at this time of year, but you will want to wash with Tecnu or some other cleanser if you suspect you touched a plant. If you do get a rash in 24–48 hours, it is best to treat it as soon as possible with a topical steroid cream. Do not wait and let it get into a nasty blistered rash. If you treat it early, when you first begin to notice itching and you only have some small red bumps, it is easily controlled.
Remnants of human activity in the park that may cause unpleasant encounters include: small sections of old barbed-wire fences; hard, ankle-high bush stumps; numerous potholes that can be as deep as 3 feet; and a few metal stakes sticking up about a foot above the ground.
There is occasional vehicle traffic on the roads, and more frequent equestrian traffic. For the safety of the riders and orienteers alike, you must yield to horses if they are in your path. Do not run out of the forest towards them from their side.
It appears that yellow jackets could be a concern for the event. They are apparently very thirsty and hot, and are swarming around any water source, including human sweat. It's only a problem if you stop moving for a few minutes, and they don't sting, so it won't likely bother people on their course. However, the bees could be a problem at the campground and Start areas. For example, the weekend before the event they were swarming all over the toilets.
Here's a message about yellow jackets from the ranger (received Oct. 3, 2012):
- The yellow jackets are still extremely active. They will be until daytime temps really start cooling down. They have been enjoying their stay in the campground. I haven't heard anything about them stinging anyone recently, they just like to land on you and swarm around you. I would definitely suggest bringing some of those yellow see-through traps where they can get in the hole but then can't get out again. Those seem to work fairly well. Keep in mind that they eat meat, so perhaps bring some meat to place in a trap to lure them in. Definitely remind everyone not to leave any food or drinks out, even water, because they will find the wasps floating in the water soon enough. Also some type of bug netting to sit under would be great for people to bring with them. I wish there was more we could do about them but its just one of those things. Luckily they aren't as bad when you're wondering around in the forest. I would also remind everyone to avoid walking on small holes in the ground where there is wasp activity. They are very unforgiving if you step on their nest. Bringing some sting relief swabs wouldn't be a bad idea. We use the Pac-Kit first aid brand.
Nick Corsano's comments:
- From experience at home, I also recommend the yellow jacket traps. You can get them at Orchard Supply Hardware for $11 (there are also cheaper types, but I have never used them). We will have a couple to put up around the assembly areas, but it might be a worthwhile investment, especially if you will be camping.
Nancy Lindeman's comments:
- Let's not let the yellow jackets spoil our camping and orienteering weekend!
- Here's an idea:
- I saw people using homemade yellow jacket traps when I was camping last weekend. They cut a hole in a plastic water bottle, used meat as bait and put dish soap in the bottom. They had 6 hung on trees around their campsite and they were filled with dead yellow jackets. I didn't have any meat with me so I didn't try it last weekend, but I think I'll try it this weekend.
- Directions on how to make a trap out of a soda bottle are here (http://www.ehow.com/how_8425011_catch-yellow-jackets-bottle-trap.html).
- Do you think this would help? Does anyone have any other ideas?
Joan Roos' comments:
- Don't try to kill a wayward yellow jacket that lands on your food or in your drink. Brush it away gently or just wait for it to leave. An alarmed wasp gives off a warning scent that immediately calls others to its rescue.
- Read more: How to Get Rid of Yellow Jackets Around Your Pool (http://www.ehow.com/how_8760197_rid-yellow-jackets-around-pool.html#ixzz28LPuqklu)
- They also advise you to pour drinks from cans into cups. If a jacket is sipping your drink you can see it better in a cup than a can.
- If you bring traps (which we hope you will), place them yards away from your activities rather than right nearby.
- Bring lots of trash bags. We should probably remove trash from the area several times during the weekend.

The event Volunteers will include ... you?
This event will require a lot of volunteer help. Anybody who would like to offer to help (i.e., before they are asked) is invited to use our online sign-up sheet (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AkYuwMAxP4YGdERKdHV5ZTVwQzhCdl8zSDE3c01ZVnc#gid=0) (instructions are in blue at the top of the sheet). Please feel free to add your name — either for a particular task, or put your name at the bottom of the sheet to indicate your willingness to help where needed.
Alternatively, you can contact one of the Crew Chiefs, or the , directly.
Having many volunteers makes everybody's task easier, and everybody's experience better. Thank you in advance!
A note about control pick-up:
- Penny and I are control pick-up coordinators. As I have noted in calls for control pick-up volunteers at previous meets, volunteers can go out at their own pace, revisit the map, do a little "training/map reading", and perhaps visit the same controls they had trouble with a couple of hours before.
- I would appreciate it if control pick-up volunteers would email me instead of using the online volunteer sign-up sheet — tell me the desired pickup day (Saturday, Sunday, or both). That way I can keep my own list of names and email addresses. (I will add names to the online volunteer sheet.)
- My inbox is waiting!

September 30th Update:
- Thanks to everybody who has stepped up to volunteer to help with the Boggs Mountain A-meet next weekend! I could use a few of more people:
- Two people to direct parking in the morning.
- I would like someone who is doing Brown to be an early runner. Enjoy the forest at its best, when it is cool and peaceful.
- One or two people to manage the Saturday evening potluck. It should mostly run by itself, but it would be great to have somebody to organize setup and cleanup.
- We can always use more people for control pickup.
- Please contact me ASAP about these requests.

Training for Juniors
Erin Schirm, coach of the U.S. Junior Orienteering Team, will be offering training for juniors at the Boggs Mountain A-meet. Erin says he will lead a junior training session and review of courses for about 90–120 minutes starting at 3 PM on Saturday after the Long course. Be prepared to go into the woods for a little bit; have a compass and your Long course map with you. Any juniors who ran Orange and up are welcome. If you are a White or Yellow course runner and would like to attend, please contact in advance.
Erin has been orienteering for about 10 years. He graduated from Syracuse University in 2011 with a Physical Education degree. At Syracuse, he ran track and cross country. His team twice won the U.S. Interscholastic Championship. He was a member of the U.S. team at the Junior World Orienteering Championships (JWOC) in Lithuania in 2006.
If you are interested in competing for a spot on the U.S. JWOC Team in the next couple years, please set up a time to talk with Erin for about half an hour during the A-meet weekend.

Camping
Boggs Mountain State Demonstration Forest, at the event site itself
- On the plus side, it’s a beautiful spot, it’s convenient, it’s free, and it will be the center of all the organized social activity for the weekend (more information coming soon). On the minus side, the facilities are minimal (a pit latrine and portable toilets, limited tables and fire pits, no running water or trash containers). You will need to bring your own water and remove your own trash. No new fire circles may be constructed. You will also need to stay close to the camping area, since you will be surrounded by areas used for the weekend’s courses (and thus off limits).
Jellystone RV Park and Camp Resort (http://www.jellystonecobbmtn.com), 10 minutes away.
- This is a well equipped private campground with tent and RV sites, a few cabins, laundry, playground, swimming pool, showers, etc. If you're not staying at this park, you can pay $3 to get a pass to take a shower (the previous "$13" amount was incorrect).
Clear Lake State Park (http://www.parks.ca.gov/?page_id=473), 30 minutes away
- Lakefront park with tent/RV sites, restrooms, and showers.
- Individual campsites (for up to 8 people each) are first come, first serve. There are two group campsites that can be reserved, but you need to have at least 9 people. Both types of sites have tiled, flush-toilet bathrooms, and nice, large, coin-operated (bring quarters), tiled showers.
- There is a nice swimming area on the lake. If you are not camping there, you can pay the day-use fee to swim and take a shower.
- A map of the park is available here (PDF/364KB) (http://www.parks.ca.gov/pages/473/files/ClearlakeCampgroundMap.pdf).
Equipment Sales
Scarborough Orienteering (http://orienteer.com) will have the following equipment available at the event:

San Francisco Airport (SFO)
Sacramento Airport (SMF)
Driving Directions
The closest major airports are Oakland (OAK) and Sacramento (SMF), each about 110 miles from Boggs Mountain. San Francisco Airport (SFO) is only a little farther away, but going through SFO definitely increases the likelihood of traffic delays driving to the event.
Traffic Warning: Friday afternoon and evening traffic on CA 29 through Napa Valley and US 101 to Santa Rosa is quite heavy. Give yourself at least an extra hour to get through this.
From San Francisco or SFO via Santa Rosa
This is usually the fastest SF route:
- Drive north on US-101 through Santa Rosa.
- Exit at River Road/Mark West Road.
- Turn right on Mark West Springs Road. This road becomes Porter Creek Road after about 5 miles, and eventually ends at a flashing red light after another 4 miles.
- Turn left onto Petrified Forest, following signs for Calistoga, for approx. 5 miles.
- Turn left onto Foothill Blvd/CA-128, and drive less than a mile.
- Turn right onto Tubbs Lane, and drive for 1.3 miles.
- Turn left onto CA-29, driving 15 miles into Middletown. (This is a curvy, mountainous road.)
- After you arrive in Middletown, turn left onto Hwy 175.
- Drive 7 miles to Cobb.
- About 1 mile past the center of Cobb, turn right onto Forestry Rd. (This is a small road at the end of a sharp bend. There is a blue sign that says CDF Fire Station.)
- Follow O' signs for about 1.5 miles. The road soon becomes dirt, as you pass the ranger station. Park at the campgrounds.
From the East Bay or the Oakland Airport via Napa Valley
- Take I-80 east past the town of Vallejo.
- Exit at Marine World Parkway/CA-37 toward Napa, and drive 2.5 miles.
- Exit Right on CA-29, driving for 39 miles to Calistoga.
- (Once in the Napa Valley, you have the option of taking the scenic Silverado Trail instead of the traffic-heavy CA-29. Turn right to leave CA-29 at Trancas, then turn left onto Silverado heading north. You will turn right onto CA-29 just north of Calistoga.)
- Turn Right on CA-29 through the town of Calistoga, driving 18 miles to Middletown. (This is a curvy, mountainous road.)
- After you arrive in Middletown, turn left onto Hwy 175.
- Drive 7 miles to Cobb.
- About 1 mile past the center of Cobb, turn right onto Forestry Rd. (This is a small road at the end of a sharp bend. There is a blue sign that says CDF Fire Station.)
- Follow O' signs for about 1.5 miles. The road soon becomes dirt, as you pass the ranger station. Park at the campgrounds.
From Sacramento
- Drive north on I-5 for 58 miles to the town of Williams.
- Exit west on CA-20 for 37 miles.
- Turn left onto CA-53, though Clearlake.
- Drive 8 miles south and make a right onto Hwy 29.
- Drive 1.5 miles and make a left onto Seigler Canyon Rd.
- Drive 4 miles and bear right onto Loch Lomond Rd (the main road changes name).
- Drive 4 miles and make a left onto Hwy 175.
- Drive 2 miles and make a left onto Forestry Rd. (This is a small road. There is a blue sign that says CDF Fire Station.)
- Follow O' signs for about 1.5 miles. The road soon becomes dirt, as you pass the ranger station. Park at the campgrounds.
