Briefly

Get to the Start location at the Cornish Hill lookout.

How to

The mobile map shows all controls. You can either make up your own course or use one of these suggested courses shown at upper right of the map on screen. These courses increase in difficulty as they increase in length. If you are a beginner we suggest you start with the Short course and work your way up.

D.I.Y. course

You make it as long and challenging as you like. Or get someone else to plan a devilish course for you. With this course you may finish at any control.

Finishing your course

When you finish, there is no Finish button to press. You simply select RESULTS or My Mobo then scroll down to your statistics.

While the above suggested courses suggest you finish at the Start, you need not. You can choose to Start and Finish at any control.
