ditto what a lot of people said, and i’ll add a couple of items to take to your race if you have to prepare your own map…
-
yardstick or other long edge; you often have to add gridlines to the race maps provided and you want to be accurate
-
plotting tool (learn how to do this prior - plotting UTMs is easy, but you don’t want race day to be your first try)
-
different colored pens or highlighters for marking checkpoints so you can see them on the map
-
flat surface (top of car may work) for drawing all this out
-
map case or ziplock for easy map reference while you’re out there
have FUN!
