EOC 2012 - Staffel II (Nachtrag)

Langdistanzweltmeister Olav Lundanes nennt die EOC Staffel 2012 "worst course I ran in 2012".

At EOC relay they managed to both find bad terrain and set a very bad course.
Until the end, the course was OK, but the fourth and third last controls are just disasters. When I was young I read the Norwegian book about course setting, and one thing that I will always remember is that the most important thing is to avoid injustice, in Norwegian called “Slump”. Around the spectator control (fourth last) the map does not show the truth about what the area around the ski-jumping hill really looks like, and this had a big influence on the 2nd leg of the relay. The control should never have been placed in this area!
The fence down to the third last control has already been discussed a lot, but I can not understand how it is possible to make a leg like that. It is just guessing how long time it takes to cross the impassable fence. But it is maybe a part of the modern orienteering…..
